This is a true (and rare) Italian “one-pot” pasta dish, and an excellent way to use that Parmigiano cheese rind you would otherwise throw away!

Pasta e Patate Recipe | Italian One-Pot Pasta & Potatoes

Watch the Pasta Grammar video where we make this recipe:




Serves 2.

For this recipe, you will need:

  • A chunk of Parmigiano cheese rind (optional)

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 1/4 onion, diced

  • 1 stalk celery, diced

  • 1/2 large carrot, diced

  • 1/4 cup chopped pancetta or thick bacon (optional)

  • 1 dried chili pepper (optional)

  • 1 large russet potato, peeled and cubed

  • Salt

  • Fresh black pepper

  • 5 cherry tomatoes (halved)

  • 200g (7oz) pasta mista (see video below) or cassarecce pasta

  • Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese to taste (optional)


If using Parmigiano rind, scrape the surface clean with a sharp knife and cut into 1-inch chunks.


ree

In a medium sauce pan, add the olive oil, onion, celery, carrot and pancetta over medium heat. If you like to spice things up, you can add a little chili pepper as well. Sauté for 3-4 minutes. Add the cubed potatoes and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Salt and pepper to taste.


ree

Add the tomatoes and the Parmigiano rind. Fill the pot with warm water until the potatoes are submerged. Bring to a simmer, partially cover, and allow to cook for 25-30 minutes. If the water evaporates/absorbs completely, add a little more as needed.


ree

Add the pasta directly into the pot and more warm water until the pasta is just barely submerged. Simmer for 10-12 minutes or until the pasta is al dente. Again, if the water burns off before the pasta is done, add a little more as needed. The result should be thick and creamy!



Turn off the heat, and stir in grated Parmigiano to taste. Serve hot or (better yet) reheat it in a pan the next day; see the video above! (And yes, you can eat that now deliciously gooey bite of Parmigiano rind).


Buon appetito!

Police clearance in the Philippines is one of the most important documents you may need for work, travel, or other legal purposes. It is issued by the Philippine National Police (PNP) to confirm that a person has no criminal record or cases filed under their name. Whether you want to apply online or directly at a police station, the process is now much easier in 2025.

In this guide, we will explain how to apply for a police clearance online and how to get one manually at the nearest police station.
