Easy-peasy spaghetti recipe


Hi everyone!☺

Who doesn't like pasta? I don't know any person who doesn't like it! I have to admit that pasta is such a versatile and delicious thing. Good pasta needs just a simply additives, like fresh tomatoes, cheese, basil, fish, meat, tofu, lentils, fruits and favourite veggies!

Today I'm going to show you a recipe for spaghetti with turkey ham, tomato sauce and Violife's Parmesan! You can skip meat in this dish and make a low protein version☺

Did you know that on the world is over 300 types of pasta? The oldest pasta was found in China, it was 20 inches long and it was 4000 years old! 

The most popular pasta is of course wheat one, made from wheat flour, water, salt and, in some types, eggs. But people with dietary restrictions also can enjoy it! Now we can buy gluten free and low protein pasta in different shapes. 

I've also tried low protein pasta in star shape and PKU rice from Aproten, which actually tastes like pasta too, and I really enjoyed it! ☺

My favourite pasta is the number shaped, annelini,  star shaped and  rice macaroni. What's your favorite pasta?☺






What you need:

♡gluten free spaghetti* (I used Schar's spaghetti)
♡a few slices of  gluten free lean turkey ham**
♡approx. 100-120 ml of tomato passata (I used tomato passata with pumpkin puree for kids)
♡salt and pepper if you like
♡1/4 teaspoon of lactose free butter***
♡basil (fresh or dried)
♡1 small handful of grated dairy free Parmesan style cheese (I used Violife's, you can use any suitable cheese)

LOW PROTEIN VERSION

*replace with low protein spaghetti
**skip or replace with vegan ham, for example Violife's Chicken Slices)
***skip or, if you use vegan ham, replace with oil or dairy free margarine


What you need to do:

1. Firstly, cook the pasta in salted water.♡

2. Secondly, melt the butter in a small pot. Meanwhile, cut the ham into tiny squares.♡

3. Put the ham into the melted butter, stir and fry for about 2 minutes.♡

4. Add tomato passata, salt, pepper and herbs. Cook for about 5 minutes. ♡

5. Add two tablespoons of the water from the pasta for loosen. Add a half of cheese and stir thoroughly.♡

6. Mix the sauce with the cooked pasta, sprinkle the rest of Parmesan, decorate with a fresh basil leaf and enjoy!♡
