The list of ingredients could hardly be shorter and the recipe couldn't be simpler. And yet this dish is full of freshness and flavour! The frozen lemon is finely grated and combined with butter, parmesan and a little pasta water to create a wonderfully creamy sauce. That’s all you need for a really good pasta dish.
