Right, the bucatini is inside there. It is almost cooked half way, so because I don't
have another gas I remove it and I'll let it finish cooking inside while I
prepare the Amatriciana. Amatriciana come from Amatrice, Lazio. Such
an incredible and tasty sauce and so simples to make! They usually do with pig
cheek, but if you don't have a pig's cheek, use pancetta. If you don't have
pancetta, use bacon. But original actually is with a pig cheek. Here in Italy look
at that, so I've got this fantastic pancetta is little bit of fat and everything so,
pan goes on. Just a little touch of olive oil, but then I put the pancetta inside.
Whilst this one start's melting nice, I get half an onion, then you cut it. Doesn't
have to be very small, I do a small ones because I'm so used to it. Cut it. You can
see it's roughly chopped just put them inside, fantastic. Let's get a spoon, and
let it seal very very nice, come on! Little splash of wine. We might
not always like a little splash of wine. Always remember if you cook on the gas
the flame is quite high, if you splash with wine just remove away from the
fire because wine has got alcohol in and it can flame it. Just a little tiny bit,
just a little tiny bit. Let it evaporate. I like mine with a tomato. This is
already Amatriciana you don't have to do anything. Just nice, sweet,
small tomato just cut them in half, and then half again. Just cut them in half,
this is all you have to do. Now make sure they're really ripe tomato
don't use a half of green tomato, it doesn't work.
Come on half again, half and again, done it. Pick them all up
and just put them inside, ah yes! And keep stirring it. I need to some pasta water.
Okay, be careful with the salt, because the
pancetta is already salted, the pasta water is already salted, so balance
yourself. Just put it inside it's done, it's hardly anything.
Put back this one. Let's have a taste. Oh yeah, I wanted this tomato to
cook quickly. I don't want the sauce really red, because it's already full of colours.
I'm gonna put a little parsley inside, you can put basil if you like it, or
hardly anything. Just cut it. This is my way.
Do you know you got many people complaining, oh no it's just pancetta,
No it's just the onion, it's just Pecorino cheese
so-and-so, make it, it's so simple and just enjoy it. I don't take the
tradition away. Yeah, it's all done, it's hardly anything. Look at
this sauce how nice it is, oh my gosh, oh my my. Get the pasta by now the pasta is ready.
Yeah let's move some stuff from here. Let's put the plate
on top, my gosh, oh my my. Let's get it. They call it bucatini
because a long thick spaghetti, the word
bucatini because it's got a little, well they have a hole inside the pasta
because they're quite thick, having a hole they cook better and quicker.
That's all you need. Little pasta water this is for me. Actually this is
done in a real time so you can do it. Of course you can do it. You know what, here the Sun is
there, here on the shade because it's nice to film, and I had a jacket on and
they said to me remove your jacket and show your beautiful shirt. Look where's my
jacket, that is my jacket. Look, I am freezing,
why? Because I love the way it's cooking and I want you to make it. So when you
actually cook this one, think of me that I'm cold, it's the wind you can
hear it and give my love and passions. Okay, look, come on wind stop
for few seconds. Make sure that everything is getting loverly, melt inside. Little
dash of olive oil. Come on! When you've got love and passion it's so simple to cook. Toss them a
little bit that's a chefy way. Put on top.
Get a place ready, turn everything off, I love it.
Look at this. Grab it to not splash anywhere because this is the only shirt I have.
Nearly done it
Oh my gosh, come on, I'm gonna leave some inside because he's for me, that should
be enough. This one, woohoo, it's cold. Okay the food is good, little parsley
this way. I'm doing with my hand, I don't have to use a knife. Grating of a pecorino,
you must create a pecorino. If you don't have it, parmesan will do it. No other
cheese. Now a drizzle of olive oil. So do make it, it's quite easy, there's nothing to it.
So I put some pancetta inside there, cut a very ripe tomato, put him inside, little
bit of pasta water, little bit parsley what else do you want? Come on the pasta
goes in and hallelujah. What kind of life? What you have to do for living? I
can't believe it. This is eating for real.
Ahhh! It's cold!
The pastor was good but I am freezing!
