Just the juices from the veggies and a bit of olive oil. I start by sweating garlic (and sometimes onions – or in this case, scallions) in ~1 tablespoon of olive oil. Then I add the veggies in the order of time it takes them to cook (last night: asparagus, broccoli, and cauliflower; then zucchini; then tomatoes; then roasted red pepper; last was arugula and pasta), salting and peppering along the way (both crushed red pepper and black pepper). When I add the pasta, I usually add a bit of pasta water to get it to a nice consistency – maybe around a quarter cup total. At the very end, I add fresh grated parmesan – sometimes I do this in the skillet, sometimes in the pasta bowl. Looks like a lot of steps, but pretty darn easy.
Thanks will definitely try this recipe esp. with all the farmer’s markets in the area. It looks so yummy and healthy.
