There Pasta alla Carrettiera it’s a first course poor, typical of Sicilian tradition: originally from Sicily oriental, in particular the area of the Platani valley, is called this way because it was invented by Sicilian carters who, during long journeys, needed a dish that was easy to preserve and also good when cold. This is how this economical recipe was born, made of a few simple ingredients, in which the spaghetti is enriched with a raw seasoning made during the cooking time of the pasta.
Our Elpidio shows you here how to make it at home in just a few steps. All you need to do is emulsify in a large bowl plenty of extra virgin olive oil with a mince of garlic And chilithen add the pasta, previously cooked al dente, together with a ladle of cooking water, and then mix everything with the pecorino grated and a generous tuft of parsley chopped: the result will be a creamy and spicy dish, perfect to bring to the table as a “save dinner” idea for an evening with family or friends.
A tastier and lighter version of the classics Spaghetti with garlic, oil and chilli pepperpasta alla carrettiera can be flavoured, as desired, with crumbled tuna fillets, pitted green olives, rehydrated dried tomatoes, but also with a little toasted breadcrumbs which will give it a pleasant crunchy note.
In place of the spaghetti you can also use linguine or bucatini: in any case, our suggestion is to opt for a long format, to be rolled up together with the cream cheese and enjoyed on the tip of a fork.
