FAQs

A classic vodka sauce recipe is made with a base of tomatoes, cream, and a splash of vodka, which helps bring out and blend the flavours. Garlic, onion, and olive oil add depth, while parmesan cheese and fresh herbs like basil or parsley finish it off. The result is a rich, creamy sauce with a subtle tang that pairs beautifully with pasta.

Vodka sauce is most often served with pasta like penne or rigatoni, but it also works well with gnocchi, lasagne, or baked pasta dishes. You can pair it with garlic bread, roasted vegetables, or even use it as a base for pizza. Its creamy, tomato-rich flavour also complements grilled chicken or prawns.

Burrata is best enjoyed fresh, at room temperature, so its creamy centre is soft and rich. Serve it with crusty bread, drizzled with olive oil, and sprinkled with salt and pepper. It’s also delicious alongside fresh tomatoes and basil, over a rocket salad, or as a topping for pizza and pasta.
