I've been battling with my pasta craving for quite a while now. Blame it to gluten!
Glad I happened to pass by at Healthy Option's shop at MOA the other day, and grabbed a pack of gluten-free pasta. And voila! a delightful merienda of Tuyo pasta on a Sunday afternoon is served.
It's a good thing also have a bottle of gourmet tuyo in your pantry.
I used gluten free pasta, but a regular pasta is ok if you don't have gluten allergy (lucky you!).This pasta dish is so simple and easy to prepare. Here's how...
Ingredients:
250 gms spaghetti noodles, cooked
about 1/2 jar of flaked tuyo (dried herring fish)
5 cloves garlic, minced
6 pcs tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped
about 1/4 cup sliced black olives
about 3/4 cup olive oil, or as needed
fresh basil leaves, as needed
fresh parsley, as needed
salt, to taste
black round pepper, to taste
How to prepare:
> Heat pan with about 2 tbsp olive oil.Keep the heat low. Saute garlic until brown. Add tuyo.
> Add tomatoes, olives and herbs.
> Stir in about 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup olive oil.
> Season with salt and pepper.
> Add in the cooked noodles. Mix well.
> Serve. This makes about 6 servings.
* You can also add capers, and other herbs like oregano,if available.
