Step 1
Add the water to a pot, and set over high heat. Add salt to the water.
Step 2
Once the water's boiling, add the pastina to the pot and stir.
Step 3
Cook, stirring often, until most of the water's been absorbed- about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the pot from heat, and whisk in the beaten egg. Whisk immediately and quickly so the egg incorporates and doesn't cook right away.
Step 5
Add the butter & cheese to the pot, stirring until evenly incorporated.
Step 6
Season with salt & pepper, to taste.
Step 7
Spoon the pastina into bowls, and serve immediately.
