This easy pasta started in Finland and is without a doubt the most popular recipe to come out of TikTok. With only five ingredients, you can whip this up for a quick weeknight dinner or reheat it later for lunch. Some TikTokers have substituted the feta cheese for other soft cheeses like goat or garlic and herb, according to the Independent.
You can also add crushed red pepper and minced garlic for some extra flavour.
