The traditional recipe of Pizzoccheri alla Valtellinese, a typical dish from Lombardy with unique genuineness and irresistible flavor. Perfect to enjoy with friends and a good glass of Valtellina wine.
Put plenty of salted water in a pot and bring to a boil.
Meanwhile, cut the potatoes into small pieces and wash and cut the Savoy cabbage in the same way.
Boil the potatoes for 5 minutes, add the Savoy cabbage and cook for another 5 minutes. Then, throw the pizzoccheri into the water and boil for 12-13 minutes.
Cut the Casera cheese into cubes and grate the Grana. Clean the garlic cloves and sauté them in a small pan with the butter until golden brown.
Drain the pizzoccheri with a slotted spoon and place them in a hot baking dish. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cheese, pour the melted butter over, add pepper to taste, and serve on very hot plates.
