AVOCADO AND GINGER PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Pasta can be cooked before hand and then warmed up in the microwave.
• Preheat the oven to 180C to roast the almonds. This won't take long so keep an eye on them. Remove from oven when ready. About 5 minutes or until golden brown.
• In a bowl place the avocado chopped with a squeeze of the lemon juice over the cut avocado.
• In a large bowl place the warmed pasta with the oil and minced ginger, toss.
• Add some salt and 3/4 of the roasted almonds, toss. Then add the coriander and then the rest of the roasted almonds and toss.
• Add the avocado last, serve with some freshly ground black pepper and salt to taste, and some lemon juice then add the shaved parmigiano (just a handful). Serve.
