Directions: |
Directions:For the beans: Rinse the beans thoroughly with cold water. Place the beans in a pot and fill with water. Cover and soak overnight.
Before cooking, rinse the beans again and then place back in the pot with the garlic cloves and a drizzle of oil and cover with 5 cups of cold water. Bring to a boil and let cook for about 15 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
For the pasta: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add salt to your preference. Once boiling, cook the pasta for 2 minutes less than the package instructions. This will give you pasta al-dente. When done, strain, but leave just a little bit of water still in the pot in order to let cook for another 1-2 minutes along with the beans and garlic mix.
While cooking the pasta, heat up some olive oil in a small frying pan, enough to cover the garlic and hot pepper once added. Once the oil is warm, add the garlic and hot pepper and fry for a couple of minutes, making sure not to let them burn.
Add the beans and a little of the water they were cooked in into the pot of strained, cooked pasta. Mix altogether and serve immediately. Enjoy and cin cin! |
