Method

Step 1

Clean artichokes, wedge the hearts, and cover with water and lemon juice to prevent from getting dark. Chop the softer leaves and stems, reserving on the side.

Step 2

Clean and cut the leek into rondels, chop and reserve the darker leaves.

Step 3

Peel and dice 3/8 inch of a potato (save skin for later) and place in a pot with chopped leek and artichoke leftovers. Add water and bring to a boil, season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

When cooked through, add parsley stems, cook another minute, and process in a blender. Pass through a sieve and reserve on the side. The sauce should be fairly thick and smooth.

Step 5

In a separate skillet, sauté leek with 2 tbsp olive oil for 3 minutes, add artichokes, and sauté until slightly brown and cooked through, seasoning with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Step 6

Bring a pot of water to boil, cook Barilla Spaghetti pasta according to package directions, adding the potato skin (saved from earlier) to the water right away.

Step 7

Drain Barilla Spaghetti pasta, toss with veggies and 1/2 cup reserved cooking water. Serve on individual dishes lined with creamy sauce on the bottom and top with parsley and Parmigiano Reggiano.
