Tofu is the secret ingredients in this creamy basil and garlic mayonnaise.
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Cook pasta in a large saucepan of salted boiling water following packet directions until al dente. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Drain well. Place in a large bowl.
- Meanwhile, to make the basil & garlic mayonnaise, make a small cut in each garlic clove and place on a baking tray. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until tender. Remove from oven and set aside for 2-3 minutes to cool. Peel garlic and place in the bowl of a food processor. Add the basil, vinegar, mustard, oil and water, and process until smooth. Gradually add the tofu, processing well after each addition, until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Use a small sharp knife to cut down the length of the corn cob, close to the core, to remove the kernels. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the corn and peas and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until tender. Set aside for 10 minutes to cool.
- Add corn mixture to pasta, along with tomato, pepper strips, celery and basil. Add mayonnaise and toss to combine. Spoon among serving bowls and season with pepper. Serve immediately.
