      Truskawki z makaronem.
      A picture of a plate with pasta. The sauce is pink, and there are strawberries over it.

      • 150g pasta. Preferably something that sticks to the sauce better, like fusilli or farfalle. Spaghetti is a bad idea.
      • 500g strawberries
      • 4Tbsp of sugar
      • a drop of vanilla extract
      • 200g sour cream. Yoghurt if you want something healthier.
      1. Boil the pasta as usual, except you’re only adding 1/2 of the salt you’d otherwise use to the water. (You want some salt for the contrast, but not enough to turn this into a savoury dish.)
      2. Clean and chop the strawberries into eights. Then reserve, like, 1/3 of them aside. Mash the rest with the sugar and vanilla extract, add the sour cream, mix everything well.
      3. Add pasta to plate. Then strawberry mix over pasta. Then the reserved strawberries over everything.
      4. [Optional] Chill it before serving.

      This should be enough for 2 people. It tastes surprisingly nice.

      And upon sharing this recipe, I can hear my ancestors… some rolling in their graves and saying “che schifo”, some giving me a thumbs up, and some asking if I could add yucca meal to the dish (no).

        The fact that the sauce isn’t mixed with the pasta before serving is probably the most egregious transgression of that whole thing.

          Ah, I stole the pic from some random site. They do it this way because it’s more presentable. But it’s better to spread the “sauce” across the pasta, mix it a bit, and then add the strawberry pieces. (Or add the strawberry pieces and then mix it, your choice.)

        When I was a kid, my mom would just straight up blend the strawberries either without anything (for dietary reasons) or with twaróg (cottage cheese)
