Pasta with sour cream and cheese in a frying pan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make pasta with sour cream and cheese in a frying pan? Very simple and fast! First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. To make the sauce a rich yellow color, I used melted cheddar in plates. Cheddar melts very well in any form and forms a homogeneous consistency. You can replace it with a regular hard cheddar or another equally well-melting cheese.

2. Step 2:

   

   You can use any pasta - horns, bows, shells, etc. I have drills (cavatappi), the main thing is that they are made of durum wheat and of good quality.

3. Step 3:

   

   If you have mozzarella in a large piece, cut it more finely. It is not necessary to grind mozzarella in the form of small balls. You can not add mozzarella at all.

4. Step 4:

   

   If you have cheese in plates, cut it into squares. If the cheese is hard, grate it on a coarse grater.

5. Step 5:

   

   In a deep frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter. If you don't have such a frying pan, you can cook the sauce in a saucepan with a thick bottom.

6. Step 6:

   

   Add flour and heat, stirring, for 1-2 minutes. The flour should gather into lumps.

7. Step 7:

   

   While preparing the sauce, boil the pasta in a large amount of salted water in parallel until al dente (1 minute less than indicated on the package).

9. Step 8:

   

   Pour the milk into the pan and stir until the flour dissolves and the mixture thickens. It is most convenient to mix with a silicone whisk so as not to damage the bottom of the pan. If there is no such thing, a wooden or silicone spatula will do.

10. Step 9:

    

    Add cheddar, mozzarella and sour cream.

11. Step 10:

    

    Simmer, stirring, until all the cheese melts and the mass becomes homogeneous.

12. Step 11:

    

    Flip the pasta into a colander and let all the water drain.

13. Step 12:

    

    Add the pasta to the cheese sauce and mix thoroughly. If necessary, you can add salt to the dish to taste. My sauce turned out to be salty enough, so I didn't add salt.

14. Step 13:

    

    Serve the finished pasta in cheese sauce immediately to the table, sprinkle it with chopped herbs and decorate with cherry tomatoes if desired. Bon appetit!
