Arrabbiata
It’s really quick and easy to make and is on the table in 30 minutes. We both have a love for pasta and tomatoes.
Ingredients
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 400g can plum or chopped tomatoes San Marzano is the best!
- 2 fresh tomatoes roughly chopped (or 8 baby cherry/plum tomatoes halved)
- 3.5g chilli flakes we like a nice heat to it!
- 200g pasta of your choice fresh or dried
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- freshly grated parmesan to serve
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a saucepan on a medium heat and add the garlic, fry for one minute and then add the chopped onion and chilli flakes and fry until softened, approx. 5 minutes.
- Then add the tomatoes and break them down (if they’re plum tomatoes) and if you’re adding fresh tomatoes, add these now and season the sauce, to taste.
- Cover and simmer for 20 minutes
- Cook the pasta as per the packet instructions, drain and add to the tomato sauce - we used fresh penne pasta.
- Serve with the freshly grated parmesan.
- Enjoy…we like to serve either with our focaccia, garlic bread or crusty bread with oil…you need to be able to soak up all of the lovely tomato sauce!!
