I’m an ex personal chef and this is the kind of thing I would make after a long day of work when I just can’t be bothered.. an anchovy cacio e pepe! SO good! 5 ingredients and done in 10-12 minutes with no chopping (just mincing and grating hehe). Truly perfection let me know if you make it!!

Ingredients:
100-150g pecorino
3 cloves of garlic
4-5 anchovy fillets
1 tbsp whole black peppercorns
Pasta

Butter & oil for frying

Method:
Toast the peppercorns in a pan and then crush them, set aside. Put your pasta on to boil, I’m using linguine. Fry the minced garlic and anchovies in a bug knob of butter and oil until they have melted together. Once the pasta is cooked, drag it into the anchovy mix, sprinkle over the grated cheese and black pepper and mix well using pasta water to bind it. Add more butter and cheese if necessary, serve with more pepper and cheese!

  1. Similar to my go to meal, but I use chili flakes and parsley instead of the black pepper. The anchovies are 👌

  2. my go to is lazy meal chicken thighs, baked sweet potato and some sort of peanut butter sauce,

  3. “Super quick easy meal for when I’m too lazy to really cook”
