This is one of the most delicious meals I have made in a very long time.
I crushed garlic in my pestle with some salt.
Added the garlic and sun dried tomatoes to a pan of olive oil.
I used the pasta I had to hand- conchiglioni. Lovely large pasta shells that just look so inviting.
I was going to make a kale saad. But then H-G suggested I cook it into the sauce and that definitely worked well. I also added chopped fresh tomato because I had some. Cook down, adding a ladlefull of the pasta cooking water every now and then and then add 2 tablespoons of double cream.
Then I cooked this down.
At this point I realised that no matter how amazing this sauce was going to be, Baby-G was never going to touch it. So for him I heated cream and grated cheddar cheese into it.
When the pasta was cooked I mixed it with the sauce, then plated up.

Then we enjoyed what is perhaps the last gasp of summer and ate outside on the terrace.
Happy days.
