Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and prepare an ice water bath. Cut a small "x" on the bottom of each tomato. In batches, place the tomatoes in the boiling water and blanch them for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the skins are easy to peel away. Remove and immediately plunge into the ice bath. Peel the tomatoes and halve horizontally. Squeeze out the seeds, using your fingers to get them all. Roughly chop the peeled and seeded tomatoes. Set aside. (You can also use whole peeled canned tomatoes. Simply drain them, seed, and roughly chop).
- Heat a large saute pan over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and heat. When the oil is hot, add the onions and garlic and saute for 2 minutes. Add the thyme leaves, oregano sprig, and chili flakes and saute until the garlic begins to turn golden brown. Add the tomatoes and the sugar and stir well. Lower the heat and cook slowly until the mixture is fairly dry, about 15 minutes.
- Cook the angel hair pasta in boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce. Add the Parmesan and basil and toss well. Place in a large pasta bowl and garnish with Parmesan and basil sprigs.

Steps:
- Mince garlic and mash to a paste with a pinch of salt using a large heavy knife.
- Core and coarsely chop two thirds of tomatoes. Halve remaining tomatoes crosswise, then rub cut sides of tomatoes against large holes of a box grater set in a large bowl, reserving pulp and discarding skin. Toss pulp with chopped tomatoes, garlic paste, lemon juice, salt, sugar (if using), and pepper. Let stand until ready to use, at least 10 minutes.
- While tomatoes stand, cook pasta in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, until al dente, about 2 minutes. Drain in a colander and immediately add to tomato mixture, tossing to combine. Sprinkle with basil.
GRILLED SHRIMP WITH FRESH TOMATO SAUCE AND ANGEL HAIR PASTA
Everything except the pasta is done on the grill in this quick and delicious recipe. Shrimp bathe in a yummy marinade while the rest of the ingredients are prepped. Angel hair pasta cooks in about 5 minutes, so have it ready and out of the way, before you go to the grill. Once you get the ingredients outside, things will go very quickly! A Caesar salad and some hot garlic bread would be great sides!

Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will make a big difference in the flavor of your sauce. Choose tomatoes that are ripe and have a deep red color.
- Roast the tomatoes before making the sauce: Roasting the tomatoes concentrates their flavor and gives the sauce a smoky, caramelized taste.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme add a lot of flavor to the sauce. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
- Don't overcook the sauce: The sauce should be cooked just until the tomatoes are softened and the flavors have melded together. Overcooking the sauce will make it lose its fresh flavor.
- Serve the sauce with your favorite pasta: Angel hair pasta is a classic choice for this sauce, but you can also use spaghetti, penne, or any other type of pasta that you like.
Conclusion:
Angel hair pasta with fresh tomato sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The roasted tomatoes give the sauce a smoky, caramelized flavor, and the fresh herbs add a bright, herbaceous note. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
