Malloreddus alla Campidanese

Malloreddus alla Campidanese is a popular pasta dish from the Campidano plain. It is made with authentic local ingredients: malloreddus pasta, saffron, fresh sausages seasoned with fennel seeds, peeled tomatoes, and a topping of freshly grated Pecorino cheese.

Like many other dishes of this region, malloreddus alla Campidanese started as a poor man's dish, but due to its fantastic flavor, over time it turned into one of the most renowned Sardinian dishes. Malloreddus alla Campidanese pairs nicely with full-bodied wines - locally produced Carignano del Sulcis is a good choice.
