- Hull the borlotti beans, rinse them and then set them aside.
- In a large pan, brown the spring onion, tomatoes, celery and carrot in 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the beans and salt and cover them with hot water, around 2 litres. Bring to the boil and cook on low for about 30 to 40 minutes or until the beans are tender.
- Check to see if you need to add more salt to the bean mixture and then add the tagliatelle. After the pasta is al dente, sprinkle with more olive oil, the basil leaves and freshly ground pepper.
