Creamy pasta with potatoes and stracchino.
Simple, quick, very tasty.
Creamy pasta with potatoes and stracchino is a very creamy, delicious, flavorsome, and tasty first course, it is prepared in just a few minutes and conquers everyone at the first taste, a perfect dish for the whole family, for guests or among friends.
For this creamy pasta with potatoes and stracchino, you need flavorful potatoes. I, as always (I adore them), used the delicious Le Gustose potatoes from Marchese Ortofrutta, firm and tasty yellow potatoes, delicious in any way they are cooked, the best potatoes I’ve ever tasted and if you try them, you’ll agree with me 😉
The Le Gustose potatoes are incredibly tasty because the Marchese company uses only high-quality raw materials from their territory, Irpinia. Based in the town of Cervinara, in the province of Avellino, the Marchese family expertly serves consumers in the processing and production of fruit and vegetable products: chestnuts, potatoes, and cherries.
Always in search of the most genuine products, a meticulous selection process, and attention to distribution have always been the pursued objectives. The Luigi Marchese company roots its origins in the most authentic Caudine fruit and vegetable tradition: the Caudine Valley, a land rich in history and customs, and always known for its quality and genuine products. I recommend trying their products, they will win you over and you’ll never switch again 😉 Try also:

Tools

Steps
Place a pot with plenty of water on the stove to cook the pasta.
Wash the potatoes well, peel them and cut them into cubes, rinse them again and add them to the pasta cooking water, salt it, bring to a boil and from the boil cook for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the onion.
Rinse a bit of parsley and chop it, set it aside.
Rinse the cherry tomatoes and cut them in half or into four parts.
In a large pan, add a generous drizzle of oil, add the onion and over low heat let it turn slightly golden, stirring, also add the puree and cook everything over high heat for a few minutes.
Also add the cherry tomatoes, let them wither over high heat for a few minutes and as soon as they are withered, add the stracchino, adjust the salt, add a grind of pepper and turn off the heat.
After 1520 minutes from the potatoes boiling, add the pasta to the water along with the potatoes, continue cooking everything one minute less than the time indicated on the pasta package.
Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to scoop the pasta and potatoes directly into the pan with the sauce, return the pan to the heat and let flavor by stirring for a minute, adding a bit of pasta cooking water if needed to make everything creamy, also add the chopped parsley and grated cheese.
Serve immediately.
