My Latest Pasta Dish

I made that!! :)

So....I tried something a little different with my pasta cooking today and it turned out pretty good! Here's my recipe:

Ingredients
Authentic Italian Fusilli Pasta :)
1 Beefsteak Tomato
1 and 1/2 medium-sized onions
2 garlic cloves
Salt
Black Pepper
Mixed Herbs
A hot pepper
Paprika
Sunflower Oil
Olive Oil
3 well-beaten eggs


Method

  • Roughly chop your beefsteak tomato, onions and garlic cloves, place them in a glass bowl (with all the liquid that comes out of the tomato, sprinkle with 1/4 of a teaspoon of salt, a dash of black pepper, mixed herbs, paprika and olive oil. Seal the bowl with cling film/plastic wrap and leave at a maximum of 2.5 feet away from a window for 2-4 hours (the longer, the better).
  • In a pot, pour in about 6-7 handfuls of pasta followed by boiling water and a pinch of salt. Turn the heat on to max and leave the pasta to cook for about 10 minutes (or as long as the instructions on the pack of pasta says).
  • Towards when the pasta is done, get a pan, heat up about 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil and then add in your raw mixture (from the glass bowl), as it cooks, stir occasionally ensuring that nothing burns or forms brown edges. Add a little more salt and some of your choice of hot pepper to taste.
  • When the pasta's done, turn down the heat on the pan and drain out the water in the pot of pasta.
  • Next, add your pasta to the contents of the pan mixing and stirring and let the pasta and veggies cook together. Turn up the heat under the pan.
  • Beat about three eggs till they are nice and fluffy then make a well in the middle of the pan and pour your eggs in. Stir, mix and turn the contents of the pan to make sure nearly all, or all of the pasta gets some egg on it. You can add more salt and pepper to taste if you think you need more.
  • Keep stirring until the egg is no longer raw before turning off the heat.
Best eaten immediately after being cooked.

Bon appétit! :)
