Tomato Pasta

Tomato Pasta
Category: Pasta recipes
Servings: 3
Time: 20-25 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
  • 300g  large pasta spirals (dry pasta)
  • 2 table spoons of extra virgin olive oil, more if you like it
  • 2 large garlic cloves, crushed and finely chopped, more if you like it
  • 4 large ripe tomatoes, well chopped, seeds and skin included. Remove the seeds and skin if you're fussy...
  • handful of well ripped basil leaves
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 table spoons of freshly and finely grated parmesan style cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano recommended!)
Preparation
  1. Cook dry pasta in plenty of salted boiling water for 10-12 minutes. Don't drain. Prepare the sauce while the pasta is cooking:
  2. Sauce: Heat the olive oil gently in a large frying pan or wok. When moderately hot add the garlic and gently fry until lightly coloured only. Avoid overcooking. Add the tomatoes and cook for several minutes, stirring and folding the ingredients. If there is a lot of liquid from the tomatoes, turn up the heat a little and reduce it a bit. Stir in the basil and turn the heat down.
  3. By this time the pasta should be cooked. Turn off the heat to the pasta and use a slotted spoon to transfer the pasta to the sauce in the other pan. Don't worry if a little of the cooking water is transferred - this is a good thing as long as you don't swamp the sauce with it. Season to taste, stir and pour into a large pasta bowl for serving. Scatter the cheese over the whole dish, reserving some for the table.
