Orecchiette Pasta with Basil Pesto

Enjoy Italian dining with this pasta dish packed with vegetables and sun-ripened Kalamata olives. I roast the aubergine and courgette in the oven. Orecchiette (literally 'little ears') is shell-shaped pasta, cooked 'al dente'. The homemade pesto made from basil and cashew nuts adds a kick to this dish. Accompanying it is a roasted pepper stuffed with vegetables and mozzarella. A vegetable feast!
