A really easy pasta dish – ultra creamy, ready in next to no time and full of flavour.
I made this pasta because I had a few odds and ends in the fridge: some sad, rather wrinkled tomatoes, a little celery and a tub of ricotta. If you don’t have celery, add a little green or red pepper instead – try to use whatever you have to hand.
Serve with your favourite pasta. I can tell you it was a hit with the whole family.

Rigtig nem og lækker ret. Brugte spinat fra frost og en dåse hakkede tomater. Stadig super lækkert
Hejsa Elisabeth
Ihhh hvor godt at høre – tusind tak for de søde ord 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Smager super godt og meget nem at lave
Hej Anja
Tak for de søde ord, det gør mig så glad at høre 🙂

Er den fryseegnet?
Hej Linda
Jeg er faktisk en smule i tvivl om hvordan ricotta egner sig til at blive frosset.
Men jeg tænker umiddelbart godt det kan lade sig gøre, så længe den varmes godt igennem 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Lækker og nem
Hejsa
Fantastisk altså, så dejligt at høre 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Hej Dianna
Virkelig lækker ret! Jeg synes dog at den blev lidt grynet – er det pga Ricottaen? Eller har jeg måske ikke varmet den nok op. Ved ikke om det er meningen, men i hvert fald smager retten godt.
Hej Stephanie
Tusind tak for din besked, dejligt du kan lide den 🙂
Ja det er ricottaen der gør den grynet i konsistensen, – det kan ikke undgåes når der bruges ricotta 🙂
Men du kan skrifte den ud med mascarpone, det smager HELT vidunderligt og bliver ultra cremet i konsistensen.
Og ellers kan du sidst, men ikke mindste, bruge helt almindelig piskefløde 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Lækker opskrift, nem at følge og alle var vilde med det. Tak for nyt inspiration til madlavning
Hej Trine
Tusind tak for din besked, – det er jeg simpelthen så glad for at høre, tak 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Hvis man nu har en mand der ikke røre noget der har med ost at gøre, kan man så bruge piskefløde i stedet?
Hej Mette
Du kan tro du kan bruge piskefløde, – du vil få samme lækre cremede resultat:)
Rigtig god fornøjelse:)
Warm wishes, Dianna
