Lemon linguine

Ingredients
 500 g dried linguine pasta
 juice of 3 lemons, zest of 1
 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
 125 g Parmesan cheese, grated
 1 large bunch fresh basil, leaves picked and finely chopped
 1 handful rocket leaves
 freshly ground black pepper & Salt to taste

Method
1. Cook the linguine in a generous amount of boiling, salted water for about 10-12 minutes
2. Drain thoroughly and return to the saucepan. 
3. Meanwhile, beat the lemon juice and zest with the olive oil, then stir in the Parmesan – it'll go thick and creamy. 
4. Season and add more lemon juice if needed. 
5. Add the lemon sauce to the linguine and shake the pan to coat each strand of pasta with the sauce (the Parmesan will melt when mixed with the pasta). 
6. Finish by stirring in the chopped basil and the rocket.
