Daca imi urmariti blogul, cred ca v-ati dat seama pana acum ca ador absolut legumele sub orice forma. Iar fasolea pastai nu face exceptie :) Ce poate fi mai bun decat o mancarica delicioasa simpla si gustoasa cu muulte legume: mancare de fasole pastai cu usturoi, alaturi de o felie de paine proaspata de casa :)

Ingrediente (4 portii):

• 1 kg fasole pastai
• 2 lg ulei de masline
• 2 cepe
• 3 catei de usturoi
• 1 ardei gras
• 1 morcov
• 1/2 legatura de marar
• sare, piper

Curatam fasolea pastai si o fierbem 15 minute in apa cu un praf de sare. Separat, intr-o oala calim ceapa, usturoiul si morcovul, toate tocate dupa bunul plac, in 2 linguri de ulei de masline. Cand sunt destul de moi adaugam fasolea pastai, ardeiul tocat marunt si rosiile cubulete. Mai lasam mancarea pe foc inca 5 min, pentru a se imbina aromele, iar la final punem mararul tocat. Pofta mare!
