- Preparation: 15 min
- Cooking: 20 min
- Makes: 1 serving (347 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian, High protein
- Contains: dairy, gluten
Ingredients
- 90 g Soba noodles, dry
- 100 g Potatoes, raw
- 80 g Cabbage, savoy, raw
- 40 g Fontina cheese
- 20 g Butter, unsalted
- 5 g Garlic, raw
- 1 g Sage, dried
- 10 g Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 g Salt
Method
- Peel and cube the potatoes, and shred the savoy cabbage; buckwheat soba noodles stand in for the traditional buckwheat pizzoccheri ribbons.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook the potatoes for 5 minutes, then add the cabbage and noodles and cook together for a further 7-8 minutes until all are tender.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small pan, add the garlic and dried sage, and cook gently for 2 minutes until fragrant, without browning the butter.
- Drain the pasta and vegetables, then layer them in a warm dish with the sliced fontina, spooning the sage butter over each layer so the cheese starts to melt.
- Finish with a scattering of grated parmesan and toss gently just before serving.
