Pasta e Fagioli
A hearty winter dish that is made of simple inexpensive ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb Roman Beans, dry
- 4 cups Water
- 2 Garlic Cloves
- 1 Fresh Tomato, diced
- 2 tbsp Fresh Chopped Parsley
- 1 lb Pasta of Choice (I'm using Ditalini)
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Soak the beans in cold water overnight.
- Into a large pot, add beans and water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 1 hour. You can also pressure cook them for 20-30mins.
- Add the beans in with the water it was cooked in. Now is the time to season with salt and pepper to taste. Add fresh diced tomato, whole garlic cloves, and chopped parsley. Bring the mixture up to a boil and let it simmer for 10 minutes to let the flavors marry.
- Add the pasta and stir to coat. Then add about 2 cups of hot water or until the pasta is cover in water by about an inch. Stir occasionally so the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom. If the pasta dries out you can add more water depending on how soupy you like it.
- Cook until the pasta is to your desired tenderness. Top with grated cheese, fresh parsley and olive oil and enjoy!
