Spaghetti Pomodoro with tomato, garlic and basil

 




How to:

400 g. penne or spaghetti
400 g. tomato paste
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3- 4 tbsp. olive oil
A handful of fresh basil, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste

How to:

Boil the pasta in salted water according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and reserve some of the cooking water.
In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant, without burning.
Pour the crushed tomatoes into the pan and mix well. Simmer for about 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens. Add salt and pepper.
Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and mix well. If necessary, add a little of the cooking water to thin the sauce.
Remove from the heat and stir in the chopped fresh basil.
Serve immediately, optionally with grated Parmesan or a little extra virgin olive oil.
