Recipe: Breadcrumbs pasta with aromatic herbs
Pasta with aromatic herbs
February 10, 2011
Pasta with toasted breadcrumbs is a traditional dish from Sicily, with simple and pour ingredients like breadcrumbs, olive oil and anchovies.
It's really quick... and it becomes quicker if you if you have to be faster than a two year old child who tries to steal the breadcrumbs to eat it!
So while I was looking for some distraction for my son, I had the idea to add some aromatic herb to the breadcrumbs. This is the result.
Breadcrumbs pasta with aromatic herbs

4 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried onion
1 tbsp dried sage
1 tsp dried oregano
Directions
Pour the breadcrumbs in a small saucepan and cook for a few minutes, stirring often until golden brown. Add onion, sage, oregano and set aside.
Cook spaghetti normally in boiling salted water.
Meanwhile, fry the garlic over low heat with olive oil. Add the anchovy fillets and melt them.
Drain well spaghetti when al dente and season with the oil.
Put in serving plates and sprinkle with the toasted breadcrumbs.
