preparation
How it is made
Quantities are for 4 people. The steps are in the order you do them.
- finely chop the onion, celery and carrot and fry them gently in the oil
- add the potatoes cut into small cubes and let them take on the flavour for a few minutes
- cover them with hot water or vegetable stock and cook them until they begin to fall apart
- add the pasta straight into the pot and cook it like a risotto, adding hot liquid when needed
- when it is cooked, stir in the parmesan, if you are using it, and add the smoked mozzarella cut into thin strips
- taste, adjust the salt and pepper and serve with fresh parsley and a drizzle of oil
