Pasta salad with dried tomatoes and olives

Spread the love

Ingredients for 8 servings:

  • 300 g pasta (preferably small penne)
  • 60 g tomatoes, dried, preserved in oil
  • 60 g olives, black, without stones, preferably already sliced
  • 250 g sheep’s cheese / feta cheese, good, preferably fresh from the market
  • 4 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 4 tbsp vinegar (sherry vinegar)
  • ¼ liter olive oil

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest period approx. 1 day; Total time approx. 1 day 20 minutes

Cook the pasta “al dente” according to the package instructions, but not too soft, and drain in a colander. Heat the tomato paste with oil and the garlic crushed through a garlic press. It will look a bit strange, but don’t worry, it’s meant to be done. Then pour it over the still-warm pasta, stir in the sherry vinegar, the diced feta cheese, and the sliced ​​olives, and let it rest. The pasta salad tastes best when prepared the day before, or early the day of so that everything is well-seasoned. It goes very well with barbecues, at parties (where it was always a hit with me), with a piece of roasted meat, or with the “Andalusian schnitzels” already available at the CK. Enjoy.
