When the pasta is cooked reserve a little bit of the cooking water . Strain the pasta then add into a large dish ( you will probably have enough sauce for two batches but depends how much sauce you want ! I usually keep the leftovers in a sealed jar in the fridge for a few days and use later ) add as much sauce on the pasta as you like then add a little pasta water and mix . Season with more feta and dill and enjoy
