Macaroni With Tomato Almond Sauce Saudi Arabia Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• Pour the macaroni into a saucepan and place over medium heat; stir in the butter, bacon grease, tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes with juice, and sugar; season with salt and pepper. Stir while cooking until butter and bacon grease has melted and incorporated completely, 5 to 10 minutes; remove from heat, cover, and allow to sit about 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Cook the macaroni in boiling salted water till tender; drain.
• Meanwhile, in skillet cook onion in butter till tender but not brown. Add the 2/3 cup water, tomato paste, almonds, shrimp, salt, cinnamon, ginger, fennel, and tomato. Bring to boiling. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Place drained macaroni on large plate; spoon sauce atop. Garnish with egg slices, lemon wedges and parsley.

Steps:

• Boil the pasta. Meanwhile, in a small food processor, blitz together the tomatoes, crème fraîche and tomato purée into a sauce. (If you don't have a small processor, finely chop the tomatoes, then mix everything together.)
• Drain the pasta, saving a little of the cooking water, then return to the pan with the tomato sauce and half the cheese. Mix together until all the pasta is coated, then serve as a side dish, sprinkled with the remaining cheese.

Steps:

• Begin heating a large pot of water for the chard and pasta. Meanwhile, make the tomato sauce. When it's done, transfer to a large bowl, and stir in the goat cheese.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and oil a 2-quart baking dish or gratin with olive oil.
• Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water in the pot comes to a boil, salt generously and add the Swiss chard. Blanch for one to two minutes, then transfer to the ice water and drain. Squeeze out excess water, and chop fine. Add to the bowl with the tomato sauce. Taste and season with salt and pepper. (Alternatively, you can steam the greens, but you'll need the water for the pasta in any case.)
• Bring the water back to a boil, and add the pasta. Cook the pasta for a minute less than the instructions on the package indicate. It should still be a little underdone, as it will finish cooking in the oven. Drain, and transfer to the bowl with the tomato sauce and chard. Add 1/4 cup of the Parmesan, and stir together until the pasta is thoroughly coated with the sauce. Transfer to the baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the top, and drizzle on the olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbly and the top just beginning to color, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat, and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
