What is your best pasta recipe?

Simple and easy? Cook pasta al dente, pour on some olive oil, crushed red pepper, salt, grated parmesan cheese, and toss together.

Roast some garlic, fry some bacon till crisp or just get the precooked crumbled stuff. Fine dice and Saute some sweet or yellow onion. Cook spaghetti in salted wster, thick version is better. Save some of the water when the pasta is done. Best one egg and put back into kettle with cooked pasta and water. Cook and stir to coat pasta. Add fresh ground pepper, roasted garlic, sauted onions, and bacon crumbled. Done!

Next recipe is easier..
Melt unsalted butter in kettle, add half as much flour and cook while stirring then add cold milk and cook till thick then add more milk until consistency is achieved. Add grated parmesan cheese. Stir. Mix with cooked pasta.

Pasta is easy to make but you should have a pasta roller. One cup AP flour, 2 eggs, salt, and some olive oil. Stir and knead till stiff then roll out and cut into desired sized noodles. Boil in salted water untill they float. Can reheat in hot water before serving.

fry some ground beef in olive oil till browned, garlic, salt an pepper, herbs and spices to taste... stir on heat till onions are soft
add chopped tomatoes,

keep heat up till the tomatoes have cooked thoroughly to a sauce, add some tomato paste, add a little balsamic vinegar to taste

stir in cooked pasta of your choice...

serve hot or warm

The best cheat I have is to grab 250g of mince and a bottle of Barilla sauce, brown the mince and add the sauce while you cook the pasta...

...10mins of practically zero effort and you're done...thats a proper meal for 2 for about 6 bucks aud...easy!

Two or three cloves garlic, one shallot both finely chopped put in 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup light olive oil add a little salt and flake pepper leave set for a little while. Depending on if you are making it for one or two use 8 to 12 ounces penne pasta or rigatoni, add some canned quartered artichoke hearts, black sliced olives, fresh quartered tomatoes to the cooked pasta and add your oil mix. Put some parmesan cheese on top just before you eat it.

Put Half a tub of Creme Fraiche in to a pan add a teaspoon of french mustard and a squidge of tomato ketchup stir and add cooked king prawns and heat through. Cook some fresh tagliatelle drain and add to the sauce - very quick and easy to do 🙂

Cook the pasta with salt and oil and Dont overcook em. I like to brown mean and onions and add that to the sauce with more spices and oil .. And make garlic bread too

Pasta, your choice... I prefer spaghetti.

A generous amount of Butter garlic to taste,
