Dried Tomato & Pine Nuts Pastasotto (Pasta Risotto)
x
Print Options
Description
An original idea to accommodate the pasta: cook them like a risotto, by absorption. I was really surprise with the result, it is really delicious. The pasta is perfectly cooked, and takes the good taste of the broth. As they are enveloped in a sauce, it is not dry at all. It’s completely different from what is obtained with rice, but it is equally good (maybe better!). I’ll do it again!
Ingredients
- 1 whole Onion, Diced
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 7 ounces, weight Pasta
- 4 cups, 3 tablespoons, 1-⅞ teaspoons, ¼ pinches Broth
- 3-⅝ ounces, weight Dried Tomatoes Cut In Small Pieces
- 1-⅞ ounces, weight Parmesan Cheese
- 1-⅞ ounces, weight Pine Nuts
Preparation
In a wok, heat onion a few minutes in olive oil (without letting it brown). Add pasta and stir until they are well coated. Pour broth as you go along, waiting each time until it is completely absorbed, stirring regularly. Cook about twenty minutes (I used about 800 ml of broth). Add tomatoes, Parmesan and pine nuts and stir. Heat 1 minute more. Serve immediately.

This way of cooking pasta works really well! I made a garlicky version of this recently, sans the pine nuts, and added a splash of cream in the end as well as loads of fresh basil.
Dreamy!
