Method

1. Put a large pan of water on to boil. Trim the green beans and cut them into 3 cm pieces; peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes of about 1.5 cm. Peel and finely chop the onion.
2. Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat and soften the onion for 4–5 minutes, until translucent; add the tomato passata and a pinch of salt and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, until thickened.
3. When the water boils, salt it and cook the potatoes and green beans for 8 minutes.
4. Add the pasta to the same pan and cook for the packet time, until the pasta is al dente and the potatoes are tender; drain everything together.
5. Toss with the sauce, stirring well so the potatoes break down a little and make it creamy, and finish with the basil.
