It's a recipe I haven't played with much, but Belle wanted me to give it a try, and I did. Kind of like jambalaya, but with pasta instead of rice, it is something different. I'm not through with this recipe, so I'm not going to post it, but if you are interested, go over to YouTube and search for "platalaya". You'll get a hundred different recipes.
I need to adjust proportions, and Belle wasn't crazy about the pasta. She would prefer shells or bow-tie, but I used what was available. It's still good, just not where I want it. Next time, different pasta, less water.
Al dente or use rice. Go with dente if pasta will then go into the stew pot to simmer with the sauce.
ReplyDeleteThat appears to be good grazing to me.
ReplyDeleteMaybe about a 1/4 cup less noodles and a smaller size ? I love pasta myself but others I know freak out at the larger sizes. They claim may as well spoon in flour. My wife could slice in some green bell pepper slices (less $$ than the yellow / red / orange peppers here).
