Up for a quickie?? :)


Well... NOT that kind, c'mon! :D

OK, let's see what we need: a pack of premade tortellini (or you can simply choose any kind of short pasta, if homemade even better!), sour cream, a fist of asparagus, some dried meat (I chose 'svinjski kare'), which you can leave out if you are a vegitarian, some olive oil, few peanuts, and this time, I chose some dried marjoram, salt and pepper.

Turn on your oven to 200°C. Now take two middle sized kettles. In one put chopped asaparagus (about 2 cm long) and let it slowly come to boiling. Then turn it off. Don't cook them! Just let them com to boiling and put aside. In the other one boil the pasta (follow the instructions on the package or your own experience, as sometimes it's better to rely on) :)

In a seperate smaller pan or kettel put in some olive oil and throw in some finelly chopped dried meat - for a veggie version, leave this part. Now add three generous table spoons of sour cream... and add majoram. Mix nicely until it starts making bubbles, then let it down a bit, so you don't get the sour cream mix all over your stove. Now take a medium sized oven-proof pan (like the one you use for making pies or roasting) and cover the bottom with olive oil, this will help you with the 'it-just-didn't-stick' part :D Throw in the pasta, cover with asparagus and the sour cream mixature to which you added some peanuts, just before sipping it onto the pasta and asparagus...
Now... I added one scrumbled egg on top of it all, you can do this as well, or add some finely grated cheese, or both! Or something you find in your fridge... JUST PLAY :D

Put alltogether in the oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or untill egg/cheese/dried meat starts to get nicely baked :) Enjoy!
