One Pot Penne Pasta Greek Style / معكرونة في وعاء واحد على الطريقة اليونانية – CWA – Episode 824

I am so excited to be part of this @Panzani.maroc campaign “Who said that men do not cook?”
Time to stop the stereotypes of men not cooking at home. Men as much as women, cook at home, either by necessity or out of pleasure Then it is just a matter of skill.
In this campaign I will invite 3 men, with different cooking skill levels, in my kitchen to cook with me “one pot pasta” fool proof recipes. Here we have @othmane_benhlima who is cooking the One Pot Pasta Greek Style. Let’s get cooking!!!
