“This whole meal only takes as long as it takes pasta to cook,” Paul says in the video. “It’s super, super easy and quick.”
Start by cooking meat and adding a few spices like curry, paprika, and salt. Then, add salt and garlic into a tub of Greek yogurt and mix it together. “It’s like a universal sauce in this household,” Paul explains.
As the meat cooks, Paul and her mom melt butter in a little saucepan and stir in paprika. And that’s it! To assemble, put pasta on a plate (they used bowtie pasta, but you can use any kind), followed by the Greek yogurt mixture, then the meat, and the paprika butter sauce. The final topping is a bit of parsley and chopped cherry tomatoes. Voila!
It looks so pretty on the plate as is, but Paul mixes it all together as she eats it to combine the flavors. She can’t resist immediately digging in, and we aren’t surprised at all — it looks that good!
So many people enjoyed this recipe, Paul made a follow-up video. “Most people are obsessed with this,” Paul says. “I’ve had people tell me they’ve made this every single day for a week straight because they love it so much, and I don’t blame you,” she adds, while eating it again. It truly is a phenomenal dish that is perfect in the cozy winter months and over the hot summer.
