Cat Cora makes these to serve with her Kota Kapama(Chicken Stewed in Wine, Garlic and Cinnamon). This would also make a simple dinner paired witha big green salad. From Cat Cora's Kitchen cookbook.

4 -6 servings (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/2-1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus kosher salt to taste
10 ounces egg noodles (or penne or rigatoni, or macaroni)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons grated pecorino cheese or parmesan cheese (or kasseri if you can find it)
1/2 cup pecorino cheese, for serving (or Parmesan)
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Directions

1
Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add 1/2-1 tbls. of the salt and the pasta. Cook until al dente, 5-7 minutes(until it still has a little bite to it-not too soft). Drain.
2
In a large saute pan, melt butter over medium hight heat. Add the pasta and 3 tbls. grated cheese.
3
Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss.
4
Top with remaining cheeses and serve hot. Enjoy! Opa!

My kids thank you. This recipe is simple and very tasty. I halved the recipe and still had plenty for 4 people. This is a great side dish that I will definitely be making again and again. ~Made for the Veg*nSwap~

These were very tasty noodles but next time I would cut down on the salt as they were a bit to salty for us. I used Amish kluski noodles and parmesan cheese. Added extra pepper and enjoyed! Thank you so much Sharon for posting this recipe. Made and reviewed for the Newest Zaar Tag Game.

This was a good and easy side dish. I followed the recipe as written using parmesan cheese and cutting back on the salt as it seemed like a lot of salt. It was still a bit too salty for us so would cut it back even more.
