One pot pasta (or one pan pasta), or, as I had already anticipated on Instagram, the version of Martha Stewart of the most Italian pasta risotta, one smart recipe I tried some time ago to prepare a plate of pasta by cooking it directly in the sauce, so as to dirty a single pot, just as you do for the risotto (hence the name) 🙂 The other time I had tried with what I had in the fridge, or a condiment based on philadelphia, bacon and saffron and I really appreciated the final result …
This time I opted for a slightly more traditional dressing, a bit like a challenge to myself, to see if, as Martha suggests, it was possible to prepare a nice plate of linguine with fresh tomatoes using a single pan for the cooking.
Well, I must admit that yes, it is possible: I got a really good dish, with al dente pasta at the right point and fresh and light but tasty sauce, made even more creamy by starch released in cooking from pasta! And above all, I dirtyed a pot, which is a great plus for a working mom like me 😉 In short, if I intrigued you and decide to try my recipe, let me know what you think!

Method
How to make one pot pasta
Wash the tomatoes and cut them into cubes.
Cut the olives into rounds.
Put the linguine, tomatoes, olives, a pinch of salt, 3/4 of the water and 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan.
Start cooking, medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. As soon as the water reaches the boiling point, add the remaining 125 ml of water and lower the flame.
Continue cooking over medium-low heat until the water has evaporated completely.
At that point turn off the heat and add the chopped basil.
Et Voilà, your one pot pasta is ready!
