Whole-wheat pasta tossed with cherry tomatoes, black olives, basil and plenty of olive oil makes this salad a light yet satisfying Aegean classic. Served cold, it is ideal when you want a quick meal.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Cook and cool the pasta

10 min

Cook the whole-wheat pasta in boiling salted water for 10 minutes and drain. Rinse with cold water to cool quickly.

2

Mix the ingredients

10 min

Mix the cooled pasta with the cherry tomatoes, black olives and basil.

3

Dress with olive oil

5 min

Add the olive oil, lemon juice and salt and toss. Scatter the Turkish white cheese over the top and serve immediately.

Reminder

Rinse the pasta in cold water and drain well, or the salad will become watery. Add the Turkish white cheese just before serving. If mixed in too early, it will release moisture and soften the salad. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), and milk and dairy products (Turkish white cheese).

Beyaz peyniri erken eklediğim için salata biraz sulandı, servisten hemen önce eklemem gerektiğini şimdi anladım. Tadı yine de güzeldi, bir dahaki sefere hazırlama sırasını değiştirip son adıma bırakacağım.

10 dakikalık haşlama tam buğday makarnayı benim damak zevkime göre biraz fazla yumuşattı, 8 dakikada dursam daha diri kalırdı. Soğuk suyla durulamak gerçekten hızlı soğutuyor, o kısım tam pratik.
