The beauty of this recipe is that you’re likely to have all the ingredients on hand. Both the sauce and the pasta take the same cooking time, so in a mere 25 minutes you can produce a delicious and wonderfully satisfying main dish. This popular and tasty recipe comes from the town of Amatrice, which is situated on the slopes of the Tronto valley in the Abruzzi region of central Italy.
