šŸ…Ā Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta (15-Minute Recipe)


This quick and easy pasta dish is not only ready in 15 minutes but also offers incredibleĀ flavor while being healthy and light.


I discovered this recipe on the YouTube channel ā€œPro Home Cooks,ā€ an excellent channel dedicated to simple home-cooked meals. What I appreciate is that the host tests everything thoroughly and explains the process so well that it feels like learning from a professional teacher. I completely trust and love their recipes!


Since it promised to be a 15-minute pasta, I had to try it immediately… and wow, it was delicious!Ā The ingredients are also very simple. Pair it with a glass of wine, and you’ll feel like you’re enjoying a meal at a fancy restaurant in the comfort of your home. I highly recommend trying it!





šŸ›’ Ingredients


• 1 small jar (about 250g) sun-dried tomatoes (enough for 2 servings)

• Parmesan cheese

• Minced onion

• Minced garlic

• Chopped parsley

• Fish sauce

• Salt & pepper

šŸ· Wine Pairing Tip


La Posta PIZZELLA Malbec – This wine is affordable yet full of rich fruit flavors with smooth tannins. It’s super versatile, perfect with meats, pasta, pizza, and grilled veggies. It even pairs beautifully with Korean dishes as well!



šŸ‘©šŸ»ā€šŸ³ Recipe


1. Heat a bit of oil in a pan and sautƩ the minced onion and garlic for about 3 minutes.

2. Add the sun-dried tomato along with its oilĀ and cook for another 3 minutes.

3. Season with fish sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.

4. Stir in plenty of grated Parmesan for extra richness—the more, the better!

5. Sprinkle in chopped parsley to finish the sauce.

6. Cook your pasta, drain, and toss it with the sauce for about 3 minutes to let the flavors absorb.

šŸ‘‰Ā If it feels a bit dry, add a splash of pasta water or extra oil to loosen it up.

šŸ“Anchovy vs. Fish Sauce—Surprised?


Indeed, I opted for fish sauce instead of anchovies here! When you consider it, both anchovies and fish sauce are fermented fish products. šŸ˜‰ Many Asian home cooks in the U.S. use fish sauce as a clever trick when preparing pasta. It's incredibly convenient and provides the same salty, umami depth as anchovies.




This recipe is incredibly simple, yet it feels special-ideal for a cozy weekend meal with family. It’s a bit different from your typical pasta, but very satisfying and surprisingly healthy. I find myself making it repeatedly.


I hope this recipe adds a little something special to your table, too. šŸ’›šŸ
