How best to cook filled pasta
On those busy nights fresh filled pasta (the bought kind) makes a brilliant quick base for dinner. You can pimp it with some flash fried baby tomatoes and courgettes, Parmesan cheese and black pepper. Or just have it naked (the pasta, not you, unless you really want to) with olive oil or butter, and Parmesan and a big side salad.
The problem is, if you cook it using the pack instructions you’ll end up with flabberdy parcels of water. So forget that and do this!
