SERVES

Serves 4

ingredients

  • 100g egg-free penne pasta
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
IN STOCK
  • 3 tbsp moscatel vinegar
IN STOCK
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 50g Piquillo pepper strips, very finely chopped
IN STOCK
  • 3 tbsp finely chopped parsley
  • 350g cooked Judión butter beans, rinsed and well drained
IN STOCK
  • 350g cooked small chickpeas, rinsed and well drained
  • 50g walnuts, chopped
  • 350g cooked large green “Castellana” lentils, rinsed and well drained
IN STOCK
  • lemons wedges for serving

METHOD

  1. Cook the pasta for 7 minutes. Rinse and drain well.
  2. In a large mixing bowl whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice and salt. Stir in the piquillo peppers and parsley.
  3. Add the beans, chickpeas and walnuts and stir well to coat.
  4. Gently fold in the lentils.
  5. Toss gently before serving with lemon wedges.
  6. Use the remaining half jars of leftover beans to make a variation of our Winter Warmer Bean Pot recipe.
  7. If you wanted to experiment with cooking the pulses yourself from dry, you could do so, to add more texture or to try different combinations. You can cook any varietal you like from dry, eg pardina lentils, white kidney beans or castellano chickpeas, but it’s quite a fiddle to cook all three types from dry at once, so this recipe uses prepared pulses.
