We welcome you into our Italian kitchen this coming Friday, 12th JUNE, at 6.00pm (Italian time)*.

THIS WILL BE A FUN, and FULLY INTERACTIVE COOKING PARTY!
This Live Cooking Party is Extra Special as there will be an additional Q&A time directly with Chef Guido and Sally in Italy, and a Special Surprise, at the end of this Party! We know you will love it!
What makes this Cooking Class different? Guido, an eighth generation Italian, born and still living in Rome, will not only be guiding you through the original recipe, but he will also be talking about the history of this dish and giving you some cooking tips and tricks to help you make the perfect 'Spaghetti with cherry tomatoes and bread crumbs'.

During the live session you will have a chance to cook along with Chef Guido. Although we encourage you to turn up Live on ZOOM, so we can cook together.....If you cannot turn up LIVE*, we will put a recording of the virtual cooking party on our 'Convivio Rome Cooking Holidays' Facebook page for a few days.

TIP: When Cooking Together LIVE with Chef Guido, we encourage you to have all your ingredients ready (weighed or measured) and a large pot of salted water already boiling. You will only need a chopping board, knife and fry pan as kitchen utensils, ready to use.



Here is the Shopping List and Recipe so you can Cook Together:
Summer Spaghetti 'Spaghetti Estate' with cherry tomatoes and bread crumbs
500 g (17.6 oz) of spaghetti
3 teaspoons of rock sea salt
30 cherry tomatoes ( chopped in half)
2 slices of Italian-style bread (2 days old is better)
A small bunch of parsley ( finely chopped)
2 whole cloves of garlic
5 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
a pinch of salt
METHOD:
Put large pot of salted water onto boil. Once water is boiling cook pasta until firm. In the meantime, cut 2 slices of Italian-style bread into dices. Toast the bread in a pan with olive oil and 2 whole cloves of garlic. Discard the garlic and put the bread in a blender with chopped parsley to obtain chunky breadcrumbs.
Chop cherry tomatoes in half. Fry the cherry tomatoes in olive oil until they are almost caramelised. Add a pinch of salt. When pasta is cooked, drain the pasta and transfer it in the pan, with a little water from the pasta pot. Mix the ingredients together. Serve the spaghetti in a pasta bowl, sprinkling a large pinch of breadcrumbs on top. Enjoy!
See you this Friday.
