Often, after a few hours of cooking, pasta sticks together, turning into a “lump of dough.”

Few people will eat such a side dish with appetite. Experienced housewives who decide to cook pasta are saved by a little trick.

To make the perfect side dish, you need to cook it in a large amount of water. In addition, you need to add olive oil to the dish.

In this case, the side dish will retain its appetizing appearance and stick together even the next day.

Thus, the basis of the ideal dish is quality pasta, plenty of water and olive oil. You can add the vegetable product during the cooking process or after cooking.

It is enough to add 1 tbsp of olive oil to the pan. It is better not to cover with a lid, otherwise the dish will eventually stick together. In addition, there is no need to rinse the pasta with running water.

Thanks to these simple steps, the side dish will retain its appetizing appearance for a long time. However, if the dish is very tasty, it will not have time to cool down before it “flies apart”.
