The World’s Easiest Pasta Recipe

During the summer season, when succulent tomatoes are at the pinnacle of their ripeness, Rome locals have a particular affinity for a pasta dish renowned for its simple, fresh ingredients and uncompromised flavors. Add to this, that Pasta alla Checca is the easiest pasta dish on the planet to make. No joke! Plump and juicy cherry tomatoes infuse the dish with sweetness, creating a delightful contrast with the savory notes of pecorino cheese and creaminess of buffalo mozzarella. Then, fragrant basil leaves tie it together with a herbaceous aroma. It is very important to choose good quality Pasta and I have chosen to use Pasta Liguori Fusilli for this recipe https://www.pastaliguori.com/en/ 💯 Follow this link to read and print the written recipe: https://www.vincenzosplate.com/Pasta-alla-checca/ 🍝Thanks to Pastificio Liguori for Sponsoring this video https://www.pastaliguori.com/en/ #pasta #recipe #vincenzosplate =============================================== INGREDIENTS: 300 grams Fusilli Pasta Liguori 10.5oz 500 grams Cherry tomatoes 17.6 oz 2 Buffalo mozzarella Pecorino cheese as much as preferred 2 garlic cloves Basil leaves as much as preferred Extra virgin olive oil EVOO Salt & pepper as much as required METHOD: 1. Cut cherry tomatoes in half and add them to a large bowl. 2. Gently squeeze the tomatoes with a potato masher to get the juice out of them. 3. Break basil leaves into small pieces and add them to the bowl. 4. Add a generous amount of salt and pepper to the bowl and give everything a nice stir. 5. Add a tablespoon of rock salt or sea salt to a pot of boiling water and boil the pasta according to package instructions. Make sure to give it a quick stir to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan. 6. Strain the pasta, let it cool, and drizzle some EVOO to prevent it from sticking together. 7. Cut buffalo mozzarella and pecorino cheese into bite-sized cubes, add half of them to the tomato mixture, and mix everything until the tomatoes, the juices, and the cheese meld together. 8. Add pasta to the bowl and quickly mix everything to let the pasta absorb all the juices. 9. Add the rest of the cheeses with a finishing touch of basil. Serve and Enjoy! HOW TO SERVE: Pasta alla Checca can be served as a stand-alone meal, especially on a hot summer day when you're seeking something light and refreshing without compromising on flavour. However, for a wholesome meal, it pairs wonderfully with a simple garden salad, chilled white wine, or a sparkling beverage. =============================================== 📺SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL (IT'S FREEEEEE ;-) http://bit.ly/SubscribeToMyYOUTUBEchannel Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcsSowAamCLJv-xeF9geXoA/join 🕴Here is the link to Buy my Merch (and the No Pineapple on Pizza T-shirt): https://www.vincenzosplatestore.com/ 📖Share it with your FOODIE friends on FACEBOOK 🍝Check out my website to get more recipes http://vincenzosplate.com/ 🌍Join my Small Group Private Italian Tour and discover the secret gems of Italy with me.
