Orecchiette with Greens, Walnuts and Brown Butter
Different and new varieties of pasta are now widely available to add a bit of interest on menus. This dish uses pasta that has a nice texture to it and looks great on a plate when mixed with greens and walnuts. The butter is lightly seasoned with KNORR Concentrated Liquid Stock to add flavour and reduce the oiliness, and served over the freshly cooked pasta.
