FRESH PASTA CON VODKA SAUCE

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups semolina durum flour
6 eggs
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 cup olive oil
1 chopped onion
1 cup vodka
3 1/2 cups marinara sauce
Oregano, salt and pepper, optional
1 cup half-and-half
Basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Pasta: Put the flour in a large mixing bowl. Beat the eggs and oil together and mix it into the flour. The dough should be firm enough to handle and not sticky. Adjust the consistency with additional flour or a few drops of water, if necessary. Knead the dough for 5 minutes. Roll it into a ball and then cover it with a kitchen towel. Let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the ball into quarters. Stretch each quarter with a rolling pin, then cut them into thin or thick slices for linguine or fettuccine.
  • Sauce: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over a medium heat. Add onions and saute until transparent. Add 1 cup of vodka and reduce it by half, then add the marinara sauce. Let it simmer and reduce. Season with oregano and salt and pepper, if using.
  • Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until cooked al dente. Add the cream to the sauce and allow it to heat through for a couple of minutes (while pasta is finishing). Drain the pasta and add it to a serving bowl. Pour in the sauce and toss. Garnish with some basil leaves and serve.

Pasta alla vodka image

Sit back and tuck into a big bowl of pasta alla vodka, a creamy tomato pasta with - as you can guess - vodka, which balances out the intense flavours

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tbsp olive oil
1 banana shallot or ½ onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed
¼ tsp chilli flakes
100g tomato purée
5 tbsp vodka
100ml double cream
200g penne or rigatoni pasta
30g grated parmesan or vegetarian alternative, plus extra to serve
small handful of basil leaves, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan or casserole dish. Add the shallot and a large pinch of salt and gently fry over a low heat for 10 mins or until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and chilli flakes and cook for 30 seconds. Stir through the tomato purée, cook for 2 mins, then stir through the vodka and cook for 3 mins. Quickly stir through the cream to combine, then remove from the heat.
  • Cook the pasta in salted water following pack instructions. Drain and reserve 150ml cooking water. Add roughly 50ml of the water to the tomato sauce, then tip in the pasta and cheese, tossing everything together over a low heat until well coated and glossy (loosen with a splash more of the cooking water if it's a little dry). Season to taste, then serve with a sprinkling of the extra parmesan, a good grinding of black pepper and the basil leaves scattered over the top.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of pasta and sauces.
  • Cook the pasta al dente, or "to the tooth," so that it still has a slight bite to it.
  • Don't overcrowd the pasta pot. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly.
  • Save some of the pasta cooking water to add to the sauce. This will help to thicken and emulsify the sauce.
  • Don't boil the sauce for too long. This will cause the vodka to evaporate and the sauce to lose its flavor.
  • Serve the pasta with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkling of chopped parsley.

Conclusion:

Fresh pasta con vodka sauce is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its rich, creamy sauce and tender pasta, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal that's packed with flavor, give fresh pasta con vodka sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
