—
INGREDIENTS
olive oil
3 to 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 package of spaghetti, salt, to taste
1 pint of sweet cherry tomatoes
fresh black pepper
a pinch of peperoncino (optional/dried chili peppers)
handful of chopped basil leaves
Parmesan cheese
DIRECTIONS
Boil water for pasta. Pour one to two inches of olive oil into a saucepan and heat up. Place spaghetti in pot to cook, stir regularly.
Gently fry the garlic and peperoncino (optional) on low to medium heat. Don’t let garlic burn. Add tomatoes and turn up heat. Do not stir initially, but allow oil to bubble around the tomatoes. After five minutes, give tomatoes a good stir, breaking them up and blending to make a creamy consistency. I like to use a potato masher to slightly crush the tomatoes.
Drain pasta. Pour tomatoes over pasta; add basil leaves with black pepper and mix. Add parmesan cheese if desired. Serves 4.
