Pasta in sour cream with cheese
A quick, hearty dish with great creamy flavor! Pasta in sour cream makes a wonderful option for a quick meal. It's especially good if you love the combination of creamy and cheesy flavors.

You can add Italian herbs to the pasta water or to the sour cream sauce itself — that'll make the finished dish even deeper and richer and lend it a touch of sophistication.
Cooking method
-
Step 1:
To make pasta with cheese and sour cream, get your pasta ready. It shouldn't be a tiny shape — shells, tubes, and spirals all work well. You'll also need a little butter, sour cream, hard cheese, and salt to taste. As for the sour cream and cheese, they should obviously be good-quality, natural, and fresh.
-
Step 2:
Start cooking the pasta. Add it to boiling salted water and, once it returns to a boil, cook it according to the package directions. Combine the sour cream with cheese grated on the coarse side of a grater.
-
Step 3:
Stir the sour cream and grated cheese together. You can add spices to the sauce to taste — ground black pepper, for example, works very well here. Italian or Provençal herbs add a nice nuance too, and a pinch of grated nutmeg wouldn't go amiss.
-
Step 4:
Drain the cooked pasta in a colander, return it to the pot, and add the butter. Stir until the butter melts.
-
Step 5:
Add the sour cream and cheese sauce to the buttered pasta and stir. Serve the pasta hot, right after making it.
- Like a more savory flavor? Add a little garlic (fresh or dried) or some hot spices to the sauce. To cook the pasta evenly and keep it from sticking, boil it in plenty of water — as a rule, a liter of water for every 100 g of pasta. It's not a good idea to make pasta in sour cream in large batches; plan it so you'll finish it in one sitting.
