Method

  1. Put the lemon zest and juice in a large mixing bowl with the oil, oregano, onion, tomatoes, cucumber and some seasoning. Mix, then set aside.
  2. Boil the pasta for 4 mins. Drain carefully, making sure not to break up the parcels, then run under cold water to cool. Add to the mixing bowl with half the cheese and the basil, then carefully stir together.
  3. Divide among plates and top with the remaining cheese and a twist of fresh black pepper, if you like.
