An unexpected trip finds me writing this post from my parents’ home. So this is a bit late for my own PPN round-up! Yay! Anyway, one of the pasta dishes I’ve done recently is this linguine and chorizos and whatever I could find in my pantry. Great cooking in less than 15 minutes. Since I am now cooking for one, I estimate the pasta I need by forming a circle between my thumb and forefinger, about a cm in diameter. That’s how much pasta I can consume. The rest of the ingredients are just approximations.
