A simple Italian-style tomato pasta made with a sauce of tomatoes, garlic and fresh basil cooked in olive oil. This quick, practical dish uses a few ingredients and is a reliable choice for everyday meals and light dinners.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the pasta

10 min

Bring plenty of salted water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook it al dente for 1 minute less than the package directions. Reserve a ladleful of pasta water before draining.

2

Make the sauce

12 min

Heat the olive oil in a pan and sauté the finely chopped garlic over medium heat until fragrant. Add the tomato passata, sugar and salt. Cook for 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.

3

Toss the pasta with the sauce

3 min

Add the drained pasta to the sauce, pour in some of the reserved pasta water and toss together. Stir in the fresh basil leaves just before removing the pan from the heat. Serve hot.

Reminder

Important: Cook the pasta in plenty of salted water until al dente so it carries the flavor of the sauce. Add the pasta before the sauce thickens, then toss with a ladleful of pasta water so the sauce coats it well. Contains gluten.

Annemin yıllardır yaptığı tarife çok benziyor, nostaljik oldu.

Şekersiz versiyonu için tatlandırıcı denedim, tadı çok değişmedi. Tereyağı yerine zeytinyağı kullandım, yine de güzel oldu. Kırmızı biber yerine yeşil biber kullandım, daha hafif oldu.
