I'm aware that Avocado Spagetti sounds a bit weird, but I have converted many a nay sayer with this recipe and I have a feeling you'll fall under my charms too. *Please forgive the picture quality, I had a hungry table of boys to feed! This recipe serves 4, but it would be very easy to halve or double. Just make sure you have an avocado each and one more for luck. You'll need: 4 fist fulls of spagetti (one for each person), 5 ripe avocados (soft, but not yet brown), Juice of 2 lemons, 2 cloves garlic, 1/3 cup of good olive oil, 1 big handful of fresh basil (or heaped tablespoon of pesto), Generous pinch of salt, Grating of parmesan. Put your pasta on to cook in a large pan of boiling, salted water. Scoop out the flesh of your avocados, discarding the skins & pips. Pop it into a blender with your lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt & basil. Blend until smooth & creamy. Give it a taste, decide if it needs anything else. More salt? More lemon? Maybe more basil? When you're happy with it, set it aside until your pasta is ready & drained. Toss together in a large bowl & sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan (not the dried stuff you buy in a shaker). If you have a couple left over basil leaves, pop them on top. Serve family style at the table. Sprinkle with more parmesan if desired. More parmesan is always
