Two Delicious Pasta Recipes for the Holidays



As the holiday rush kicks in, prepare to whip up these delicious but easy-to-prepare menus for gatherings with family and friends shared by the makers of EL REAL Pasta.

Crazy over Classic Carbonara

Saute 1/4 cup minced onions in one teaspoon oil over low fire for five minutes. Add 1/4 cup chopped sweet ham, 1/4 cup chopped bacon, 1/4 cup chopped carrots, 1/4 cup green peas and 1/4 cup corn kernels. Cook for five minutes and toss in 3 cups EL REAL Flat Noodles, cooked according to package instructions. In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup all-purpose cream and 4 egg yolks. While the pasta is still hot, toss in the cream and egg mixture. Season with salt and pepper as desired, and serve.

Delightful Tuna Pasta Salad

In a bowl, combine 1 cup drained canned tuna in brine, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons oyster sauce, 1/4 cup minced onions, 1/4 cup minced carrots and 1/4 cup bell pepper to make a dressing. Toss in 3 cups of EL REAL Curly Macaroni, cooked according to package instructions, coating the pasta evenly with the dressing. Season with salt and pepper, then chill in the ref before serving.

The affordable EL REAL Flat Spaghetti and the EL REAL Curly Macaroni put a twist to the usual pasta recipes. Both flat and the curly noodles will be able to retain the delicious flavor of your favorite pasta sauce. The FLAT Spaghetti takes only six minutes to cook while the CURLY Macaroni cooks for five minutes only. EL REAL is first in the market to offer these quick-cook pastas in FLAT Spaghetti and Curly Macaroni variants.


These two new variants are perfect for a dynamic range of dishes, making it easier to satisfy cravings. Use them for making appetizers, main courses and desserts.
