Aletria A Antiga (Sweet Angel Hair Pasta)
- 250 g angel hair pasta
- 1 lemon (just the peeling of the lemon)
- 1 1/2 liters milk (just add in more hot milk if you like it creamy, I do)
- 200 g sugar, depending on your taste (I use less about130gr,)
- 1/2 cup water
- 100 g butter
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 3 -4 egg yolks (I add 4 I like colour it gives out and texture)
- Place water, milk, salt, sugar, cinnamon stick, butter and lemon peel in a pot and bring to a boil.
- Remove 1/2 cup of this, so you can very slowly beat in egg yolks, and set aside.
- Now you may add in your Angel Hair Pasta, and bring to a boil, reduce heat keep stirring at ALL times, if it looks like its getting to dry add in some mor HOT milk.
- Half way through your cooking add in the 1/2 cup of milk with the yolks that you had put aside, and stir till cooked.
- Pour everything into a platter not forgetting to remove the lemon peel and cinnamon stick, and spread evenly.
- Let cool, then decorate with cinnamon powder to your liken.
