Calories: 712kcal
Ingredients
- 28 oz tomatoes canned
- 1 onion peeled and halved
- 5 cloves garlic peeled
- 1/2 stick butter
- 1 small bunch basil leaves and stalks separated
- 8 oz pasta
- 1-2 tbsp parmesan cheese (optional) to serve
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Add the tomatoes, butter, onion, garlic, and basil stems to a large pan.
- Bring to a boil then turn down to a simmer. Cook for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Blend until smooth and season to taste.
- In the meantime, cook the pasta to al dente.
- Toss the pasta in as much of the tomato sauce as you want (I normally use about half the whole pot for 8 oz pasta), adding the basil leaves.
- Sprinkle with parmesan and serve hot.
