One Pot Rigatoni with Zucchini and Ricotta Cheese / ريجاتوني في وعاء واحد بالقرع الأخضر وجبنة ريكوتا – CookingWithAlia – Episode 829
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 invited 2 men, with different cooking skill levels, in my kitchen to cook with me “one pot pasta” fool proof recipes. After the video with Othmane who cooked for us the one pot pasta greek style, I welcomed in my kitchen @abdelazizelberdai who will be cooking the One Pot Rigatoni With Zucchini and Ricotta. Let’s get cooking!!!
