  1. TOAST THE SEEDS

    Boil the kettle for the pasta. Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.

  2. I LOVE ME SOME GLUTEN-FREE!

    Place a pot over a high heat, fill with boiling water, and add a pinch of salt. Once boiling rapidly, add a drizzle of oil and cook the spaghetti for 13-15 minutes until al dente. Keep stirring for the first 3 minutes to prevent sticking, then stir sporadically for the remaining time. Drain on completion, reserving ½ cup of pasta water for the sauce. Toss through a drizzle of oil to further prevent sticking.

  3. CRISPY KASSLER & CREAMY SAUCE

    Rinse the kassler to remove excess salt and pat dry with paper towel. Place a pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the kassler for 2-3 minutes until crispy, shifting as it browns. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Return the pan to a medium heat with a knob of butter. When hot, fry the diced onion for 3-4 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Stir in the grated garlic and fry for a minute until fragrant. Add the white wine and allow to bubble for 1-2 minutes until reduced by half. Stir through the cream and three-quarters of the grated hard cheese. Reduce to a low heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. WHILE THE SAUCE IS SIMMERING…

    Assemble the salad! Toss the rinsed salad leaves with the toasted sunflower seeds and the cab sauv vinegar to taste.

  5. FINISH IT UP

    Once the sauce has reduced, toss through the cooked pasta, the peas, and the crispy kassler until coated. Cook for 1-2 minutes, tossing until heated through. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add the reserved pasta water until a silky consistency. Season to taste and remove from the heat on completion.
