Ingredients for 10 servings:

  • 500 g pasta (spirals)
  • 1 can peas and carrots
  • 1 small can of pineapple, cut into pieces
  • Mayonnaise as needed
  • curry powder
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Rest time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 15 minutes

with pineapple, peas and carrots

Cook the pasta as usual until al dente. In the meantime, put a few tablespoons of mayonnaise into a large bowl, add the drained peas and carrots, and stir. Drain the pineapple, reserving the juice, and add the pineapple chunks to the bowl. Add a little pineapple juice to taste and season with curry powder, salt, and pepper. The sauce can be a little thinner; this will help it absorb the sauce better and prevent the salad from becoming too dry. Add the cooked pasta and mix everything well. Season to taste and add a little more pineapple juice or mayonnaise, if desired. The salad tastes best when it’s left to stand for at least 2 hours or even 1 day. Season again before serving.
