O rețetă italiană rapidă de toamnă: paste rigatoni învăluite într-un sos mătăsos de dovleac plăcintar, cimbru aromat, usturoi și parmezan ras. Un preparat reconfortant, gata în 25 de minute.
Preparation method
Ingredient preparation
Peel and seed the butternut squash, then cut the flesh into small cubes of about 1 cm so they cook quickly and evenly. Finely chop the yellow onion and crush the 3 garlic cloves.
Cooking the sauce and pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. When the water is boiling, add the rigatoni pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve a cup of the starchy pasta water.
In a large, deep skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and crushed garlic, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until translucent and fragrant.
Chef's tip
The starchy pasta cooking water is essential: poured over the mashed squash and parmesan, it emulsifies the fats and creates an incredibly smooth and creamy texture, without the need for cream.
