  • ½ bunch flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • A pinch of chilli flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  1. Finely chop the onion, garlic and rosemary. Heat a little olive oil in a large soup pan and gently sauté them.

  6. Add the fusilli and cook for another 7 minutes until the pasta is al dente.
