6

tablespoons olive oil
2

DIRECTIONS

Cook the spaghetti in boiling water for 8 - 10 mins so it still has some bite inches Drain and set aside.
Mix the olive oil with the garlic.
place the vegetables on a large tray and drizzle over the olive oil.
Grill the veg for 10 mins until tender and lightly charred. Keep warm.
divide the spaghetti among 4 greased tins. (I use a Yorkshire pudding pan) Curl round a fork to form nest shapes and brush with the melted butter and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs.
bake the pasta nests for 15 mins at 200C/400F.
Place a pasta nest on a serving plate and to with the grilled vegetables.
