Many people tend to underestimate vermicelli: this side dish is often associated with students and bachelors.
However, you can cook pasta in such a way that even the pickiest gourmets will be delighted.
For example, you can prepare a dish in the Eastern style, while refusing the classic method of cooking in a saucepan, notes chef Yulia Arkhipova , an expert on culinary issues for the online publication BelNovosti.
How to cook Turkish vermicelli
As you probably already guessed, we are talking about frying pasta in a frying pan. You will need to take the required amount of pasta.
Then we choose a quality frying pan, warm it up a little, and send the pasta in one layer. The time for such frying is two minutes. Don't forget to stir.
Only after this do we add water. It is advisable to use boiling water. At this stage, the dish is salted and spices are added.
Cook with a lid, but it should not be closed completely. It is important that the moisture evaporates.
Afterwards, remove the lid completely and fry the vermicelli until there is no trace of water left.
Next, add a small piece of butter and try to distribute it as evenly as possible.
