Categories     main-dish

Time 1h13m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 medium carrot, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper flakes
2 (28-ounce) cans diced tomatoes
1 dried bay leaf
2 teaspoons sugar
Kosher salt
1 pound bucatini pasta or thick spaghetti
12 ounces ricotta cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup julienne fresh basil leaves, for garnish
Grilled Sweet Italian Sausage, recipe follows
8 links sweet Italian sausage

Steps:

  • Heat butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the onion and carrot and saute until golden, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes and cook 1 more minute. Add the tomatoes with their juice, bay leaf, sugar, and 2 teaspoons salt and bring to simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, about 30 more minutes.
  • Prepare pasta while sauce simmers. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions until al dente, about 12 minutes. Drain.
  • Remove sauce from heat, remove bay leaf, and carefully blend, in batches, to break up large pieces. Mix sauce with pasta. Serve individual portions topped with a heaping tablespoon of ricotta and garnish with basil.
  • Cut each link evenly in half lengthwise. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat until hot. Place the sausage cut side down and cook, turning on all sides for even browning, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Serve as an accompaniment with the bucatini marinara.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces sweet Italian turkey sausage (2 links), removed from casings
1 large onion, sliced (about 11/2 cups)
1 medium red bell pepper, sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 (28-ounce) can whole San Marzano tomatoes, crushed by hand
1 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Sicilian on the branch
Kosher salt
Crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound bucatini
1/2 cup fresh Italian parsley leaves, chopped
1/2 cup freshly grated Grana Padano

Steps:

  • 1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for pasta. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Add the sausage. Cook and crumble with a wooden spoon until the sausage is well browned, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper and cook until wilted, about 8 minutes, adding a splash of pasta water if the pan seems dry at any point.
  • 2. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the wine and reduce, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and 2 cups pasta water. Stir in the oregano and season with salt and red pepper flakes. Adjust the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until thick and flavorful, about 20 minutes.
  • 3. When the sauce is almost ready, add the bucatini to the boiling water. When the pasta is al dente, remove it with tongs and add directly to the sauce, reserving the pasta water. Add the parsley. Toss to coat the pasta in the sauce, adding a splash of pasta water if the pasta seems dry. Remove the skillet from the heat, sprinkle with the grated Grana Padano, toss, and serve.

CREAMY BUCATINI WITH SPRING ONIONS AND MINT



Creamy Bucatini With Spring Onions and Mint image

Rich and creamy in texture, and full of sweet-savory onion flavor, this rather mild-looking pasta packs a wallop on the fork. The pistachios add color and crunch, but other nuts work nearly as well. And if you can't get spring onions (that is, fresh bunches of onions with their greens still attached, available in late spring and early summer), you can substitute regular onions or a combination of alliums, such as sweet onions, scallions, ramps or leeks.

Categories     weekday, pastas, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Salt
1 pound bucatini or thick spaghetti
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound spring onions, thinly sliced, including any nice greens (about 4 cups, see Tip)
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 large sprig fresh rosemary
Large pinch of red-pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 cup grated Pecorino Romano
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/4 cup chives, finely chopped, more for serving
1/3 cup torn mint leaves, for serving
Chopped pistachio, for serving (or use pine nuts or almonds)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook until it is just shy of al dente, usually 2 minutes less than the package instructions. Reserve about 1 cup pasta water for the sauce (a coffee mug is good for this), then drain the pasta.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown at the edges and thoroughly soft, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Add heavy cream, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, red-pepper flakes, and a few grinds black pepper to the pan, and bring to a simmer. Let cream reduce and thicken, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and stir in Pecorino Romano until combined. Add the drained pasta and about 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water. Toss well to coat the pasta. If the sauce is too thick, add pasta water by the tablespoon; if it's too thin, let it bubble and reduce for a minute or so. Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest and chives. Taste and add more salt, if needed.
  • Serve in bowls, each topped with more chives, mint, a generous amount of black pepper and a sprinkle of pistachios.
