Back in the states we used to cook a dish we called “Mom's Pasta” pretty regular. (Named after Chel's Mom). It was an amazing dish dealing with noodles, broccoli, olives, snap peas, bell pepper, italian sausage, and pine nuts with some olive oil and seasoning for flavor. (sometimes parmesan cheese) We had a craving for it recently maybe because it's been 18 months and our culinary minds have been stretched to the limits, or maybe we wanted a piece of home. Anyway, we had to modify the recipe a bit, but it came down to one of the most delicious and simple dishes we could possibly make.
Pasta
Onion
Garlic
Cut up (chipped as they say in Guyana)Bora (asian string beans)
Shaved Carrot
Cut Olives
Corn (we used canned)
Diced tomato
Olive Oil
Seasoning (Salt or Adobo or Bragg or whatever you want really)
Boil your pasta.
Cut up and Saute the onion and garlic in Olive Oil
Add the Chipped Bora and Carrot (a few minutes)
Add Corn and Olives
Add the Tomatoes
Stir in the cooked pasta. Add more olive oil if you want for a nice sauce and your seasoning.
Fry and stir for a few minutes (but not so long as the veggies start to wilt. You still want them to have a crunch.)
Serve.
Simple and delicious!
