Method

Pasta Preparation

1

Cook the Pasta

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the fusilli pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.

Sauce Preparation

2

Sauté Garlic

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

3

Add Tomatoes and Aji Amarillo

Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Stir in the Peruvian aji amarillo paste and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

4

Stir in Cream and Cheese

Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir well, then add the grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.

5

Season the Sauce

Taste the sauce and add salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped fresh basil.

Combine Pasta and Sauce

6

Mix Together

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until heated through.

Serve

7

Plate and Garnish

Serve the pasta hot, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh basil if desired.
