Thank you for the Pride well wishes to me specifically ☺️ My mediocre pasta dish is spaghetti with too many vegetables in the sauce

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I would like to try your mediocre pasta, please.

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

I omit the olives and use a 1:1 onion:pepper ratio, but it’s basically like this one

This recipe probably has a fine amount of veg as written, I just always think it needs more than it does and I don’t measure shit when I’m making sauce 👍

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

If you make me a sample, please include the olives.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

"omit", meaning olives are a standard ingredient in your parts? WTF.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Can't speak for the other person, but I'm in Spain and black olives in spaghetti is very normal here :-)

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

As part of a normal tomato sauce or bolognese, or is that a different thing entirely?

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 days ago

With tomato purée and stuff

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I was making mediocre pasta bolognese for years and years until I found a very simple very delicious recipe and realized I was trying way way too hard with ingredients

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

Pasta with tomato sauce is my favorite dish, so I can cook some elaborate versions of it, but yeah, an all time favorite is still just purreed tomatoes, salt, pepper.

[–] Ibaudia@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Too many vegetables? No such thing. Just means it isn't traditional but I'm sure it's still delish!

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Finish with some lemon. It's like some kind of voodoo

Hey, respect the man's identity. This isnt 'respecting trans guys who make great pasta dishes' day.

[–] volvoxvsmarla@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago

I thought it's first time mom on r/babybumps and now I am very confused

[–] TassieTosser@aussie.zone 18 points 2 days ago (2 children)

It doesnt mean "fuck the Man"?

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago

i mean, yeah in a way, as long as the man consents of course

[–] alaphic@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

It doesn't mean 'fair to middling'?

I thought it meant Fuck The Mainstream for a long time lol
