1.6 oz Gorgonzola cheese, or Cambozola
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated 0.5 oz
3 tbsp cream 15% 1.5 fl.oz
1 pinch salt [optional]
ground pepper to taste [optional]

Before you start

Keep the serving plates in the oven at the lowest setting so they are warm when you serve.

Put a colander in the sink to drain the cooked pasta so that it will be ready when needed.

Method

  1. Cook the pasta until just tender but still firm to the bite (al dente).
  2. Meanwhile, in a large pasta bowl, combine the 3 cheeses: ricotta, gorgonzola, and grated parmesan. Warm them up in a microwave oven then add the cream.
  3. Pour the drained pasta into the bowl, mix well and adjust the seasoning. Serve in the warmed dishes.
