Pasta with Sicilian escarole: the typical vegetarian recipe of peasant cuisine

This first plate, That it is prepared in 10 real minutes, practically in the cooking time of the pasta, he is vegetarian, like much of Sicilian cuisine of peasant origin. I always like to remember as the basis of Sicilian cuisine, especially inland, is a poor basis, composed mainly of vegetables, extra virgin olive oil and cereals: the meat, fish and even cheese ingredients were not used every day.

I advise you to Don't change the recipe or add cheese grated to replace the 'muddica atturrata', fried bread. Parmesan or pecorino would change the balance of a good pot just as it is, with the bitter note of the olives, the tangy capers and the crisp and refreshing of escarole. If you love the Sicilian cuisine, remember that you can find this and many other of the island in my SICILIAN RECIPES.

At that time, you can use curly endive, turnip tops, Black Cabbage… same procedure but in the case of turnip tops and black cabbage must first blanch for 3-4 minutes in boiling salted water. Let me know, Ada

If you have a look on the site you will also find a paste made precisely with the cabbage, a risotto and some other recipe. If a vegetable that is easy to find perhaps you might be interested. Appearance news. Ada

What do you think about using crushed pistachios in place of the breadcrumbs? I bought a package of them on a recent trip to Sicily as they were on many pasta dishes i5 had there.
