10In a pan over a high heat, stir-fry the vegetables in the heated olive oil until tender crisp. Stir in the garlic and stock and season to taste, then simmer for a few minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in rapidly boiling salted water until al dente, then drain (reserve the cooking water).
Mix the hot pasta with the pesto – if necessary loosen with a little of the reserved pasta water or olive oil.
Top with the vegetables and roasted walnuts and pass around extra grated cheese when serving.
To make the pesto:
Blend the herbs, garlic and a little seasoning with the olive oil to form a paste. Stir in the cheese by hand.

TASTE’s take:
The pecorino Romano from Sardinia is a sheep’s-milk cheese with a delicious sharp, salty edge. Its good flavour adds to the success of this simple dish.
