A first course rich in flavor

Ingredients for 4 persons

350 g of pasta fusilloni

1 thick slice of Rosa di Sant’Andrea by I Cottinforno

Tomato sauce as to desire

Extra virgin olive oil as to desire

Salt as to desire

Pepper as to desire

Parmesan cheese (facultative)

 

Preparation

Cut the Rosa di Sant’Andrea into cubes and bake in the oven. Pour a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil into a pan and incorporate the Rosa di Sant’Andrea previously cut into cubes, let it brown slightly, add the tomato sauce and if needed, add a pinch of salt.

Let the sauce cook and when it is almost cooked boil a pot of salted water and add the fusilloni pasta.

When the fusilloni are cooked al dente, drain and season with the sauce Rosa di Sant’Andrea. Grind a little pepper and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese on top.

This recipe can be made with the variant of adding the Rosa di Sant’Andrea cubed directly at the end of the preparation of the pasta by making it sauté in the pan with the pasta and tomato sauce for a few minutes, always adding a bit of pepper and Parmesan cheese.
