This classic pasta cacio e pepe is a sophisticated yet simple vegetarian dish that relies on the quality of just a few pantry staples. Traditionally made with Pecorino Romano and punchy black pepper, this version includes fresh rocket which wilts slightly into the warm noodles to provide a peppery bite and a splash of colour. By using the starchy pasta cooking water, you create a silky, emulsified sauce that coats every strand without the need for heavy cream.
Ideal for a quick midweek supper, this recipe transforms basic ingredients into a comforting, restaurant-standard meal in less than fifteen minutes. Serve it in warmed bowls to keep the cheese sauce perfectly smooth, perhaps with a crisp green salad on the side. It is a brilliant example of how Italian home cooking celebrates minimalism and high-quality seasonal flavours.
