Here’s a super easy macaroni recipe. Do you ever have left over noodles after making pastitsio? My Mom used to cook some of these noodles and we’d add butter and grated cheese (mizithra or Parmesan) YUM! I decided to make a quick tomato sauce tonight.
Ingredients
Pastitsio noodles – I used a 1/4 package, because that’s all that was left 🙂
2 Tbsp EVOO – Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Red Onion, diced
2 Cloves Garlic, chopped
1 tsp Tomato paste
2 Anchovy fillet, chopped
1oz Feta, crumbled
Basil
Rosemary
Parmesan cheese
Preparation
Boil the noodles according to package directions. You can take it out a couple minutes before they are done and let the noodles cook in the sauce for a couple minutes.
Heat up some EVOO over med-high heat, add the chopped onions and saute for about 5 minutes, then add the garlic, anchovies, tomato paste, rosemary and basil. Cook for another 5 minutes or so until the onions start to caramelize and the anchovies melt into the sauce.
Turn the heat down to medium and add the feta cheese. Stir to incorporate into the sauce.
Add the drained noodles and cook for a couple minutes on low heat.
