Lactose-free Penne alla Vodka

Step 1

Here are 4 easy steps for a lactose-free Penne alla vodka recipe:

Step 2

Start with preparing the “soffritto” or “mirepoix”: slice the onion and chop finely. In a pan, heat up some E.V.O.O and cook until it is translucent in colour.

• Onion
• E.V.O.O. (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)

Step 3

Add the pancetta to the pan, cooking until golden and caramelised. Stir regularly to avoid the pancetta burning in the pan. As soon as it is golden in colour, add the vodka over a high heat and let it evaporate and cook out the alcohol.

• Pancetta (Bacon)
• Vodka

Step 4

Pour in the Arrabbiata sauce and reduce the sauce over a low heat, adjust salt to taste. Mix in the lactose-free cream and stir until the sauce has a creamy and soft texture.

• Arrabbiata sauce
• Salt
• Cream

Step 5

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add rock salt and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain when “al dente”, reserving some pasta water. Mix the pasta into the pan with the sauce, adding some extra pasta water if needed. Sprinkle sliced chilli over the top and serve immediately.

• Pasta
• Salt
• Black pepper
