COOK THE PASTA
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.
TOASTED NUTS
Place the pine nuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
TOMATO SAUCE
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic and the NOMU rub, and fry until fragrant, 1 minute (shifting constantly). Pour in the cooked chopped tomato and 50ml of warm water. Reduce the heat and leave to simmer until slightly reduced, 6-7 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final minute add the crème fraîche, the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, the halved olives, a sweetener (to taste), and seasoning. Mix until fully combined and remove from the heat.
BAKE UNTIL GOLDEN
Add the cooked pasta to the tomato sauce and mix until fully coated. Place in a small ovenproof dish. Sprinkle over the grated cheese and pop in the hot oven. Bake until the cheese is melted and golden, 4-5 minutes. In a salad bowl, toss the rinsed green leaves with the toasted pine nuts, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
