From alliesev 14 years agoIngredients
- 2 tbsp lard or bacon fat (I have used vegetable shortening, not as tasty, but works) shopping list
- 2 tbsp corn oil (I have used canola, which is fine) shopping list
- 125 g dried vermicelli pasta shopping list
- 1 onion, sliced into rings (2 onions if you like them!) shopping list
- 3-4 garlic cloves, chopped shopping list
- 1 large bunch of flat leaf parsley or epazote, tied into a bundle (personally I skip this) shopping list
- 2 fresh green jalapeno chillies, stuck together on a cocktail stick (optional) shopping list
- 1.2 litres chicken stock shopping list
- 4 tablespoons tomato puree shopping list
- 2 tomatoes, diced shopping list
- 25 g shaved or grated Parmesan or crumbled goat's cheese shopping list
How to make it
- Heat the lard or bacon fat and oil in a large heavy-based saucepan. Add the dry pasta and saute until golden - do not let it scorch. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pasta and set aside.
- Add the onion and garlic and saute until soft and aromatic.
- Add the parsley or epazote, chillies, stock, tomato puree and diced tomatoes. Stir well and return to the boil.
- Add the pasta, stir, cover, reduce the heat and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
- Uncover and simmer for 10-20 minutes longer until almost dry (the time will depend on the size and depth of your saucepan).
- Serve, sprinkled with parsley and cheese.
