• porciones: 2 servings
• tiempo total: 8 minutes

Ingredientes

¾ cup (4oz / 120g) pastina - I've used stelline pastina

3 cups vegetable broth - I've used low sodium

4 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese (ensure it's finely grated)

Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

Extra grated parmesan cheese

Black pepper

Instrucciones

In a small pot, pour in the vegetable broth and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook over a medium-high heat with the lid on and bring to a boil

Once boiling, add the pastina and stir through the broth. Continue to stir it every now and then so it doesn't clump or stick to the bottom. Cook until al dente (according to package instructions)Pastina typically takes between 5-8 minutes to cook

Once cooked, turn off the heat and add in the finely grated parmesan cheese with a drizzle of olive oil. Continuously stir the pastina for 1-2 minutes to thicken the broth and create a creamy consistency

Serve in bowls and garnish with a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, extra parmesan cheese and black pepper and enjoy your yummy bowl of Italian Pastina!
