This whole roasted romanesco recipe is a show stopper, especially when you have vegan guests. The flavour that romanesco takes on when roasted is nuttier and crunchier that it’s cauliflower and broccoli cousins. If you can’t get romanesco this recipe also well with cauliflower.

This is my version of linguine al granchio or linguine with crab, which is typical of Venice and towns along the Adriatic coast. I think curly pasta holds a sauce like this better than smooth linguine so I used fusilli lunghi bucati or long curly fusilli, which is traditionally served with Neapolitan sauces but, hey, I’m not Italian, so it works for me in this crab pasta dish.

The addition of the avocado makes for a smoother creamier soup as well as bringing all the good fats, vitamins of the little green nutrient bombs.
Beware - It took me a while to get this soup right as the watercress needs to be blanched in boiling water to remove its bitterness.
