Cat Cora makes these to serve with her Kota Kapama(Chicken Stewed in Wine, Garlic and Cinnamon). This would also make a simple dinner paired witha big green salad. From Cat Cora's Kitchen cookbook. Ingredients:
1/2-1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus kosher salt to taste |
10 ounces egg noodles (or penne or rigatoni, or macaroni) |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter |
3 tablespoons grated pecorino cheese (or kasseri if you can find it) or 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese (or kasseri if you can find it) |
1/2 cup pecorino cheese, for serving (or parmesan) |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add 1/2-1 tbls. of the salt and the pasta. Cook until al dente, 5-7 minutes(until it still has a little bite to it-not too soft). Drain. 2. In a large saute pan, melt butter over medium hight heat. Add the pasta and 3 tbls. grated cheese. 3. Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss. 4. Top with remaining cheeses and serve hot. Enjoy! Opa! |
