Directions

Bring the water, olive oil, and Turkish Bay Leaves to a boil in a large pot.

Add the bow tie pasta and cook 3 to 5 minutes longer than the package directions suggest — you want soft, slightly overcooked pasta.

While the pasta cooks, stir the corn starch, Tomato Powder, your chosen herb seasoning (Italian Herbs or Pizza & Pasta Sprinkle), Classic Garlic & Onion Blend, and Kosher Salt together in a small bowl.

Drain the pasta well, then immediately toss with the spice mixture until each piece is evenly coated.

Heat the canola oil in a wide skillet to 350°F. Working in batches, fry the seasoned pasta for 1 to 2 minutes, until deeply golden and crisp.
