Have a real Italian food recipe?
No short cuts, no Americanized food. I want authentic Italian food like lasagna, gnocci, stuffed rigatoni, egg plant parmesian,and the like. I prefer Calabrese cooking but am open to Southern Italian or Sicilian food too. I was happily married to an Italian woman who learned and cooked from her native Italian mother. I planted and harvested the garden and my wife (who died) did the canning. It took me awhile to understand that the Italinan pasta was just a prelude to the the roast beef and potato dinner. The table wine was always there made from the grapes stomped in the basement by my wife's great grandmother. I would give my life to sit down and enjoy just one more meal with an Italian family before I die. Salute!

it's a pasta recipe from sardinia
u need: extravirgin olive oil, tomato puree, red onion, fresh parsley, carrot, bay leaves, pork sausage, saffron and... what kind of pasta? the best would be gnocchetti sardi but if u can't find them, u can use other kinds of pasta corta too. choose the ones which absorb more sauce.
heat the oil and make a soffritto with finely chopped onion, carrot and parsley. peel the sausage, smash it with a fork and cook until golden brown with the soffritto. add the tomato puree and 1-2 bay leaves, adjust the salt and cook ssssslowly. reduce until sauce is thick and velvety, when it's done add the saffron and mix.
drain pasta, dress with the sauce and complete with ripe sheep milk cheese like pecorino.
toast with a full-bodied red wine.
buon appetito!

Here is one that is easy. Its called Papagallo. Shopping List: Penne Pasta, one lemon, Premade Alfredo Sauce, Premade Marinara sauce, Chicken Breast, and Italian Sausage. Fill a pot half full of water. Add 1tsp of salt, and 1/4 cup of oil to the water. Squeze the lemon juice into the water. Bring to a boil, and add the pasta. When pasta is done, drain pasta. In a frying pan, cook the chicken and sausage until well done. In a large saute pan, add equal amounts of the marinara and alfredo sauce. It is best to make your own sauces, but it is a real pain in the rear. (If you do make your own, use a light cream for the alfredo) Then add the chicken and sausage. Once the sauce is hot, add the pasta. Your done.
