Pasta with Olive Oil, Sage and Parmesan Time: 5 minutes plus however
long it takes to cook the pasta
This is the 'invention' of mon mari. Left alone he's a pretty creative cook! I love the fried sage leaves, and if you like sage at all, 20 leaves are not too many!
1 cup uncooked pasta - fusilli, farfalle, something bite-size
2 tbs olive oil
15 - 20 fresh sage leaves
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup grated Parmesan - preferably freshly grated
black pepper
Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain. In same pan over medium low heat olive oil. Add sage leaves and minced garlic and sauté for a few minutes. Add drained pasta, toss quickly, remove from heat and add Parmesan and lots of black pepper. Serve.
