Rapunzel pasta!

First of all, you’ll need some stelline pasta; its the one that looks like tiny flowers!

Pour some into little bowls and cover in boiling water

Drop some food colouring (preferably a good gel colouring, you’ll get stronger colours) into each bowl and give them a good stir

As you’re not boiling these properly, they’ll need a little longer in the water to cook through and absorb the colouring; leave them for about 10 minutes before you start cooking the regular pasta.

To represent Rapunzel’s braid, I used fusili (the curly kind) but you could use spaghetti or any long/curly pasta. Cook that as per usual, drain it and tip it into a large bowl. Drain the flowers and chuck the in too, give it a stir and ta-da!

Top with your favourite pasta sauce and serve to princesses!
