- Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and tip in the pasta shapes, return to the boil and cook for 10-12 minutes until just tender.
- Meanwhile, wash the rocket and leave to drain. Heat the oil in a small saucepan and gently fry the garlic and spring onions for about 30 seconds.
- Drain the pasta and rinse lightly. Tip into a large bowl and add the garlic, spring onions and oil, crème fraîche, capers, lemon juice, salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
- Stir in the rocket and pile the pasta onto serving plates or in a large bowl. Scatter with the lemon zest and serve immediately.
