Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Bring salted water to a boil and cook the pasta until al dente, then rinse and set aside. Heat the olive oil in a large pan and sauté the diced onions and chopped garlic. Add the beefsteak tomatoes and sun-dried tomatoes and simmer for about 5 minutes. Add the quartered cocktail tomatoes and season with salt, pepper, basil, marjoram, a little sugar and chili powder. If there is not enough liquid, simply add 100-150 ml of stock. Reduce the heat and add the cleaned arugula and fold it into the sauce. Cook gently for about 3 minutes. Finally, scatter the mozzarella over the pasta and let it melt. Place the cooked pasta in a large serving bowl and pour the arugula, tomato and mozzarella mixture over it, mix everything together and then serve. If you don’t like it meat-free, simply fry 200g of bacon with the onions and garlic at the beginning.
