Why Nandos Pasta?

Nandos Pasta is an excellent twist that I know you will love.

After recently creating my creamy vodka pasta recipe, I thought the spice and creaminess would translate well to something with Nandos flavour. 

A decent Nandos Fakeaway is always a winner in my eyes, and now that I have perfected my own piri piri sauce, I can use it in this dish. 

This is super easy to make, and only uses one main pan other than cooking the pasta. The beauty of making your own piri piri sauce is that you can adjust to taste to be as spicy or non spicy as you like!

Of course, you could also cheat and buy the ready made Nandos sauces to use as well. You could also try making this with my Nandos Lemon & Herb sauce if spice is not for you!

I used tagliatelle pasta in this dish as it was I had in the house, but you could use any dried pasta you like. 

I usually make up a big batch of the piri piri sauce and either freeze it or keep it in jars so I have some to hand when I need it.
