1
In a food processor, combine the spinach, basil, lemon juice, pine nuts, and 4 tbsp of oil. Set aside until needed.

Heat the remaining oil with the garlic and chili in a large pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the garlic is golden.

Add the pasta and deglaze with 1 litre of water.

5
Stir well and cook the pasta until done. Stir the pasta occasionally and add some water if needed. I used gluten-free pasta, which requires a bit more water. The pasta should be al dente and still nice and creamy.
