Cooking Vegetarian Penne with zucchini, peas and mint

The fragrant mint and zest lemon tang in this light vegetarian pasta are made all the better with a drizzle of olive oil.

  1. Cook pasta in a saucepan of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain.
  2. Meanwhile, heat 2 tbs of the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the zucchini and garlic, stirring, for 3 minutes or until zucchini starts to soften. Pour in wine and bring to a simmer. Add peas and cook for 2 minutes or until peas are just tender. Season. Add pasta, lemon rind, chopped mint and remaining olive oil to the pan. Toss to combine.
  3. Divide the pasta among bowls. Drizzle with extra oil and serve with mint leaves and cheese.
