Italian Cooking, first lesson Hi there! I love food and I love to cook. I'd love to share with you some of my favourite Italian recipes. Let me start with something very basic but tasty: Pasta with Tomato Sauce and Chilli Pepper - Pasta all'Arrabbiata (Arrabbiata means angry in Italian) Let's start with the TOMATO SAUCE -cook over low heat- - put the pan on the burner, add some olive oil and some onion - not too much - (previously cut into small pieces) . Cook them until translucent, gently, over low heat. DON'T BURN THEM! If not, you can directly throw everything away :D - add the chilli pepper seeds. - you can now add your tomato sauce, some salt and a pinch of sugar in order to make your sauce taste less sour/acidic. - let your sauce cook for at least 20 minutes, always over low heat. Don't forget to taste it and adjust the flavour! The PASTA: - boil some water into a large pot - only when the water is boiling, add a some salt (10 grams of salt, for 1 litre of water, for 100 grams of pasta) - check your pasta cooking time on the package, every type of pasta has different cooking time - drain your pasta through a colander set in your sin (but set aside 1 small cup of water) *, drain the pasta 1 minutes before the cooking time ULTIMATE YOUR RECIPE - take the pan with the tomato sauce, add the pasta and cook for 1 minute over a fast heat mixing the pasta with the sauce, adding some water if necessary * Now it's time to taste your wonderful Arrabbiata Pasta!
