Bowtie Neapolitan

Sounds impressive and complicated, doesn't it? It isn't. It's super simple. 


RECIPE: Bowtie Neapolitan


Ingredients:

Pasta

Oil

Onion

Tomato

Basil

Garlic 

Basil

Chives (optional)

Salt & Pepper


Method:


> boil water in a pot and cook noodles as recommended on the package


> chop and fry one onion in the oil over fairly high heat; you will make the sauce and shred the cheese in the time it takes the pasta to cook


> chop and add two tomatoes


> chop and add garlic, basil, and chives


> finish with salt and pepper 


> chop or shred some fresh or aged mozzarella (or ANY other cheese)


> drain the pasta


> toss the pasta in the sauce 


> add the cheese either to the pot and toss or leave it separate to self-serve at the table


This one takes 10 minutes, start to finish (if you start with a pot of water that is already hot from the tap). 


It's a great side to any dinner or lunch and is great served hot or cold. If serving cold, do not toss the cheese in while the pasta and sauce are hot.
