Let’s not focus on the fact that I made this meal back in February and am only getting around to posting about it now. No…let’s focus on the tasty little dish that it turned out to be – using a variety of pasta that was new to me. Casarecce!
Something akin to a thin twisted penne – that ended up being quite perfect for the meal itself.
Simply – chorizo, garlic, peas and zucchini. Finished with white wine, lemon juice and a sprinkle of ricotta and basil.
Overall – this was a beautifully light and fresh pasta – and a perfect dish for those of us who are not big fans of a heavy creamy sauce.
And perfect for the Summery evening on which it was served. What about you? Ever tried cassarece?
What a fab looking quick and easy dish Lisa! 😀 We've still got a bit of summer left…right? 😀
This is the favourite pasta in our house, it was harder to find a couple of years ago but now it is everywhere..
