Why This one

a few words from me

Penne all amatriciana is a tasty meal, easy and quick to prepare. Originally from the city of Amatrice, in Lazio, it is the version cooked with pasta in a short format; the original one uses spaghetti instead. Penne all amatriciana is a traditional dish whose main ingredients are pork cheek and cherry tomatoes. Nowadays cooked often with bacon with the addition of chilli to give it a little kick.
