How to make Pasta with Pumpkin and Goat Cheese:
- We gather all the ingredients to make the pasta with pumpkin and goat cheese.
- First of all, we peel the pumpkin and cut it into medium-sized squares.
- Sauté the pumpkin with a little olive oil and add salt, pepper and dry oregano. Stir and let it cook over medium heat until it softens.
- On the other hand, we cook the pasta in abundant boiling water with a little salt. In this case we have used fusilli, but you can use any other short pasta that you like. When ready, drain, leaving a little of the cooking water.
- Tip: The cooking time depends on the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Mix the fusilli with the fried pumpkin and the goat cheese in pieces. We let the flavors integrate by moving the preparation with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- We put the pasta with pumpkin and goat cheeses in the oven at 190 ºC, putting a little more goat cheese on top. Let the cheese melt for about 3 minutes.
