Ingredients for Pasta with Green Vegetables and Herbs

• 450g thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

• 240ml frozen peas

• 450g linguine

• 2 cups packed fresh basil leaves

• 1 cup packed fresh mint leaves

• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

How to make Pasta with Green Vegetables and Herbs

Cook asparagus in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling well-salted water until just tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a large heatproof bowl, then add peas to boiling water and cook 2 minutes. Transfer peas with slotted spoon to bowl with asparagus, then add linguine to boiling water and cook until al dente.

While linguine cooks, pulse basil, mint, oil, salt, pepper, and 120ml feta in a food processor until chopped, then add to vegetables.

Reserve 120ml pasta-cooking water, then drain pasta in a colander. Stir reserved cooking water into vegetables, then add pasta, parsley, spring onions, and remaining 120ml feta and toss.
