PASTA WITH PESTO, BROCCOLI, AND POTATOES
Steps:
- Cook potatoes in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 10 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to cutting board; return water to boil. Add broccoli; cook 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer broccoli to large bowl; return water to boil. Add linguine and cook until tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water. Cut potatoes into small chunks. Add potatoes, pasta, and pesto to broccoli and toss, adding reserved cooking water by tablespoonfuls to moisten if necessary. Season with salt and pepper. Serve, passing cheese separately.
BROCCOLI-WALNUT PESTO PASTA
Pesto becomes more full-bodied with the addition of broccoli that's blanched in the same pot as the pasta and fresher with the combination of mint and lemon. For a sauce that's light and loose, use only the florets - not the stems. Raw walnuts have a welcome natural sweetness and nice crunch that complement the pesto, but you can leave them out or substitute sunflower seeds if you have a tree-nut allergy.

Steps:
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Add 1/4 cup salt, then add the broccoli. Cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green and just tender, about 5 minutes. Use a spider or slotted spoon to transfer to a food processor; keep the water boiling.
- Drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook according to the package's directions for al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water.
- Meanwhile, add the garlic to the broccoli and pulse, scraping the bowl occasionally, until smooth. Add the mint, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pulse until smooth, then add the oil with the machine running.
- Drain the pasta well and transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the pesto. Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and toss until the pasta is evenly coated. If the mixture seems thick, fold in the reserved pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time. The mixture will thicken as it cools, so you want it to be saucy. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide among serving dishes and top with lemon zest, then grate cheese over. Sprinkle with the walnuts, grind more black pepper on top, then drizzle with olive oil. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.

Steps:
- KIDS: the writing in bold is for you. GROWN-UPS: the rest is for you. Pick the basil for the pesto. Get your child to pick the basil leaves off the stalks. Ask them to look at and smell the leaves as you tell them the name of the herb until they remember it - try to do this with all herbs when you can.
- Make the pesto. Toast the pine nuts in a pan over a low heat. A child of seven years plus can stir the nuts in the pan. Tip into a mini chopper (or use a pestle and mortar) with the basil, parmesan, garlic and olive oil. Blitz or pound into a green sauce, then set aside.
- Chop up the beans. Using a child-friendly knife, get children from the age of five to chop the green beans into shorter lengths, and quarter the potatoes. Younger children can snap the beans into short lengths while you prepare the potatoes.
- Cook the vegetables and pasta. Bring a large pan of water to the boil, add the potatoes and boil for 3 mins. Remove from the heat and ask the child to tip in the pasta and give it a stir. Put the pan back on the heat, boil the pasta for 5 mins, add the beans and cook for a final 3 mins.
- Mix everything together. Drain everything well and tip into a bowl. Spoon most of the pesto into the pasta and stir everything together to coat. Bring the large bowl of pasta to the table and serve with extra parmesan, more basil and remaining pesto, if you like.

Steps:
- If making fresh pasta, beat the eggs together in a large bowl. Gradually stir in enough flour to make a soft, pliable dough. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Shape it into a ball, cover with a damp towel and let rest for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, to make the sauce, place the garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 cup of basil in a food processor and pulse until chopped. Add the remaining basil and process until chopped. Add the pine nuts, cheeses and olive oil and process until the mixture forms a smooth paste. Set aside.
- Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Simmer over medium heat until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and set aside. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and blanch until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Divide the pasta dough in half and keep 1 piece wrapped in the towel. On a lightly floured surface, roll and stretch the pasta dough into a 13-by-16-inch rectangle. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut across into 1-inch-wide strips. Repeat with the remaining dough. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fresh or dried pasta until al dente, about 5 minutes for the fresh or 10 to 12 minutes for dried. Drain well and place in a large bowl.
- Toss the pasta with the pesto and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Toss in the broccoli and potatoes. Divide among 4 plates and serve.
