The same applies to our time in the kitchen. Preparing a delicious meal can often take time. But if you're under the impression that you need to peel potatoes, cook rice, fry meatballs, or tenderize pork chops daily, allow me to prove you wrong. There's an abundance of quick and simple recipes that are perfect for daily meals, and they're delicious, too - so even the most discerning palate won't be able to resist them. Best of all, these meals can be prepared using a single kitchen appliance, a fantastic time-saver.

You can find the full, step-by-step recipe in the video.

This remarkably cheesy pasta not only tastes divine, but it's also quickly prepared in a regular frying pan

Ingredients:

    `
  • 0.56 lbs of fusilli pasta,
  • 1/2 cup of pasta water,
  • 3 tablespoons of butter,
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil,
  • 2 cloves of garlic,
  • 3 teaspoons of tomato concentrate,
  • 1/2 cup of 30% cream,
  • 1 cup of tomato sauce,
  • season with salt and pepper to taste,
  • 1 cup of cheddar cheese,
  • 1 cup of mozzarella cheese,
  • 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese,
  • a handful of fresh basil leaves.

Instructions:

Step 1: Begin the recipe by boiling the pasta as per the instructions on the packet. Any type of pasta can be used for this recipe, although this time, I've chosen fusilli.

Step 2: Place a frying pan on the stove, then melt the butter and heat the olive oil together. After a moment, add the peeled and minced garlic cloves.

Step 3: Next, add the tomato concentrate, tomato sauce, cream, pepper and salt into the frying pan. Mix the ingredients well using a whisk.

Step 4: Add the cheddar and mozzarella cheese to the mixture.
