He might have acting skills and good looks going for him, but his recent reveal of a pasta dish recipe shows that Robert Pattinson might not be the best cook.
You can’t deny that even though you might not have liked Twilight or even Harry Potter, Robert Pattinson was quite a catch in both, and definitely had you crushing on him, thinking he could do no wrong.
Well, in a recent profile for GQ, Robert Pattinson detailed his time in isolation, and let us all in on the key ingredients to his home cooking, so buckle up and get ready for his bizarre pasta dish.
Apparently, he’s keen to have “a pasta which you can hold in your hand” and basically give the dish “the same kind of fast-food credentials as burgers ad pizza.”
Pattinson went on to make the pasta dish in the video portion of his interview, detailing to writer Zach Baron that you really only need a few ingredients like pasta, Corn Flakes (because he was out of bread crumbs), already sliced cheese, hamburger buns, and whatever kind of sauce.
If you thought that was weird, the method he decides to cook it with is even stranger, as he starts off by cooking his penne pasta in the microwave for eight minutes, before coating a piece of aluminium foil in sugar.
“I found after a lot of experimentation that you really need to congeal everything in an enormous amount of sugar and cheese. It really needs a sugar crust,” Pattinson continues.

After adding the penne, Pattinson decided to pour “more sugar on top of it and then produces the top half of a bun, which he hollows out, places it on top of the rest of whatever the hell this thing is, and…begins burning the top of the bun with the giant novelty lighter.”
Y’know, we’d like to think he’s taking the piss, but apparently he’s even passed on the idea to restaurant owner Lele Massimini:
“I told him my business plan, and his facial expression didn’t even change afterward,” Pattinson detailed, “let alone acknowledge what my plan was. There was absolutely no sign of anything from him, literally. And so it kind of put me off a little bit.”
Can you make any sense of what he’s trying to make? And are you keen on his idea?
