Spaghetti Nests


Fried Nests Recipe

From Geometry of Pasta

  • 1/2 lb. (or box) long, thin pasta (spaghetti or the like)
  • 1 1/2 T butter (Think I left this out as my pasta wasn't fresh.)
  • 1/2 cup grated Pecorino
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 T bread crumbs
  • 6 T Olive oil

Stir butter into pasta cooked to al dente and drained. Combine eggs, cheese, and bread crumbs in bowl and stir in pasta. Heat the oil over medium heat in a wide skillet. Using a fork, twist sections of the spaghetti into "nests" as large as you can make them. Cook the nests in the oil 2-3 minutes or until golden brown on each side. I used a smaller skillet and made two batches so they wouldn't cool between servings.

Tomato Basil Soup-IKEA Orlando-Cost to Eat

Tomato Basil Soup

On occasion, we find opportunity to eat at IKEA. Generally, a sale draws us in, and we arrange to have friends go with us. The activity is so much more fun with another couple. When IKEA Orlando opened, we were still newlyweds, and we took along fellow newlyweds, Tim and Magally Putt. We enjoyed a variety of vegetarian dishes. Magally, also enjoyed the Swedish meatballs, which are not vegetarian.
