Pasta With Yogurt Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Set the yogurt in a sieve set over a bowl to strain and come to room temperature, about 1 hour.
• Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Season generously with salt. Add fettuccine and cook until al dente, about 2 minutes less than the box instructions. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water.
• Combine feta, yogurt, garlic, lemon zest and juice, olive oil and half the herbs in a large bowl, then season with salt and pepper. Mix until well blended.
• Add the hot cooked pasta and toss to coat. Add some pasta water until sauce is at desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning. Transfer to serving bowls and garnish with Pecorino-Romano and the remaining chopped herbs.

Steps:

• Yogurt Cheese (Labaneh): Line a strainer with 2 layers of cheesecloth; place the strainer over a bowl and pour the yogurt into the strainer; set aside at room temperature for at least 8 hours or until very, very thick.
• If using the garlic, push it through a garlic press and stir into the thickened labaneh.
• Refrigerate.
• Pasta: Make sure labaneh is at room temperature; boil the pasta in salted water until al dente; drain and return to the pot, stirring until all liquid has evaporated.
• Add the paprika to the melted butter; toss the butter mixture and yogurt cheese with the pasta; season with salt and pepper.
