# Pasta all'amatriciana | ||
|
||
 | ||
|
||
## Intro | ||
|
||
Pasta all'amatriciana (or "alla matriciana") is a very popular dish from Amatrice, a small town in Lazio, very close to Abruzzo. | ||
The original name was "alla matriciana", since shepherds from Amatrice used to call themselves "matriciani", but it's become common use to call this pasta "amatriciana". | ||
Traditionally the recipe had no tomatoes, but nowadays this is the recipe as it's eaten in Lazio. | ||
|
||
## Ingredients (2 people) | ||
|
||
* 200g pasta, preferably bucatini | ||
* 125g guanciale | ||
* 75g pecorino from Amatrice (if you can, avoid pecorino romano, as it's too strong for this recipe) | ||
* 250g of San Marzano canned tomatoes | ||
* 1 generous spoonful of lard | ||
* 1 red chilli | ||
|
||
## How to do it | ||
|
||
Bring 2 liters of water to boil, then add 20g of salt. Cook the pasta for around 1 minute less than the time you read on the box. | ||
|
||
In the meantime put a pan on high heat. | ||
Put the lard in it, and once it's hot bring the heat to moderate and start cooking the chilli and the guanciale, cut into stripes of consistent size, for a couple of minutes until it's golden. | ||
Once the guanciale is ready (not too crunchy, but the fat should render a bit), put the tomatoes in the pan and reduce it. | ||
|
||
When the sauce reaches the thickness you like, remove the chilli and put pasta and pecorino in the pan, stirring thoroughly. | ||
|
||
Serve straightway, finishing it off with some more grated pecorino on top if you like. | ||
|
||
## Tips and tricks | ||
|
||
Use lard to cook the guanciale, not olive oil as it's too acid for this recipe. | ||
