Directions

For those who love hot spices, this dish of linguini with garam masala and garlic, and shredded Chinese leaf, makes a refreshing change from blander pasta dishes. Serve this one with a tomato and onion salad and some hot nan bread.

Heat the oil gently and fry the garlic, garam masala and turmeric together for a few minutes. Then stir in the Chinese leaves and stir-fry until they soften. Add the stock, heat through and season with a little salt. Then mix in the yogurt, and when the sauce is smooth and even pour over the hot, drained linguini and toss thoroughly. Serve at once, on hot plates.
