If you are wondering what the recipe is, we have got you covered:
Key ingredients:
Pasta: Any variety will work, but whole-grain pasta is recommended for extra nutritional value.
Minced Meat: Chicken or lamb.
Greek Yogurt: Adds creaminess and sourness.
Spices: Salt, pepper, curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika for added flavour.
Butter: Adds to the sauce used to knit the dish together.
Preparation
The beauty of Anna Paul’s Turkish pasta lies in its simplicity and adaptability. The creamy yoghurt sauce, buttery paprika drizzle and savoury ground meat take over the bowl. While many recipes use traditional ground beef, Anna allows for flexibility by adding ground chicken or lamb according to one’s personal preference.
This dish has appealed to users not just because of its rich taste but its easy preparation. Many home cooks reported preparing this meal in less than 30 minutes. Preparing boiled pasta, browned meat with spices, and lightly prepared yoghurt sauce makes it perfect for weeknight dinners and casual gatherings.
Before Anna’s recipe, Gigi Hadid’s spicy vodka pasta rose to culinary fame and became an internet sensation in 2020. After she shared the recipe on her Instagram account, it became the most searched pasta recipe online. Fundamentally, a creamy penne alla vodka, this richness takes a different turn by using pasta shells instead of the usual shapes.
