Pesto pasta with feta & a fried egg

This popped up on my Instagram feed, and looked so good we made it that night. It didn't disappoint, and is a quick and tasty mid week dinner.

Serves 1

Vegetarian possible (depending on the cheese) gluten free possible

For the pesto:

75g spaghetti

handful of feta, crumbled

1 egg

salt

olive oil

chilli flakes

Make the pesto by putting all the ingredients in a mini food processor and blitzing to the consistency you like. Add more olive oil (or a bit of water) if necessary.
In a pan, heat a small amount of oil, and crumble the feta. Add a swirl of pesto, and then the egg. Cover and fry over a low heat.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the pack instructions.
Once the pasta is cooked, mix it with the remaining pesto.
To assemble, put the pesto pasta into a bowl and top with the fried egg. Sprinkle a few chilli flakes over the top. Enjoy :)

This recipe tastes even better made with vegetables from Community Harvest Whetstone :)
