Note
The outstanding Cobram Estate Picual Extra Virgin Olive Oil won the title as the best olive oil in Australia at the national awards for 2009 and this simple dish of pasta will help you discover why this olive oil is so fantastic. I have kept the dish light so the flavours of the oil can be discovered.
