- Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this dish, so make sure to use a good quality oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice.
- Season the pork generously: Don't be afraid to season the pork generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the meat.
- Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is just tender, but still has a slight bite to it.
- Add the pasta to the sauce: Once the pasta is cooked, add it to the sauce and stir to combine. This will help to coat the pasta with the sauce and prevent it from sticking together.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil or parsley, add a bright and flavorful touch to this dish. Garnish the pasta with fresh herbs before serving.
