Campanelle With Fresh Puttanesca Recipes

CAMPANELLE WITH FRESH ARUGULA AND PEAS

Steps:

• In a large pasta serving bowl place olive oil, tomatoes, basil, garlic, and salt.
• Boil the pasta, adding the peas in the last minute of cooking.
• Drain the pasta and peas. Toss into the tomato sauce with arugula.
• Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

PUTTANESCA I

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Heat oil in a skillet over low heat; cook garlic in oil until golden. Add sieved tomatoes, and cook 5 minutes. Stir in anchovies, tomato paste, capers, olives, and red pepper flakes. Cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Toss pasta with sauce, and serve.

CREAMY CAMPANELLE WITH HAM AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute less than the package recommends, 6 to 9 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in mushrooms, oregano, basil, and parsley. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated. Stir in the ham and cook until heated through, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour in heavy cream and bring to a boil. Slowly stir in spaghetti sauce and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has reduced a bit. Add cooked pasta to pan (if your saute pan is too small, transfer pasta and mushroom ham blend into the pan you cooked the pasta in). Cook so that sauce thickens a bit more, pasta finishes cooking, and the entire dish has melded together, about 5 minutes more.

CAMPANELLE PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving about 1 cup of the pasta water.
• In a 14-inch skillet, heat 1/4 cup of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, or until aromatic. Add the tuna to the skillet and, using a fork, break it into chunks. Add the cherry tomatoes, artichoke hearts, capers, and thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to soften, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add the pasta, the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil, and the parsley. Toss until all the ingredients are coated, adding a little pasta water, if needed, to thin out the sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta salad to a serving bowl and serve warm or at room temperature.
