Provided by Suzy

Categories     Main Course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (I used Private Reserve Greek extra virgin olive oil)
1 medium yellow onion, grated
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
2 carrots, finely grated (use a food processor or a grater)
28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup water (pasta cooking water, preferred)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 tsp sweet Spanish paprika
Pinch red pepper flakes, optional
Handful fresh basil, about ½ cup packed, torn
Handful fresh parsley, about ½ cup packed, chopped
3/4 lb to 1 lb of cooked pasta of your choice

Steps:

  • In a large pan heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until just shimmering. Add the onions, garlic, and finely grated carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring regularly until softened.
  • Add the crushed tomatoes and about 1/2 cup water. Add a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in oregano, paprika, crushed pepper flakes, if using. Finally, stir in the fresh basil and parsley.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil, then turn heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes. Check partway through, and if you feel the sauce is too thick, you can add a bit more water (preferably some of your pasta cooking water). When sauce is ready, throw in more fresh basil, if you like.
  • If serving for dinner, add cooked pasta of your choice to the sauce. Mix to combine and let the pasta cook in the sauce over low heat for about 5 minutes.

CAVATELLI WITH MUSHROOM BUTTER SAUCE



Cavatelli with Mushroom Butter Sauce image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 yellow onion, finely diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
16 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 cup frozen peas
1 pound cavatelli pasta, recipe follows (or use ready-made fresh or frozen)
1 1/2 cups grated Pecorino Romano cheese, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 1/2 cups 00 flour
1 cup semolina flour, plus more for sprinkling
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive

Steps:

  • Heat a saucepan over medium heat. Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook until foaming. Add the onions, season with a little salt and saute about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more. Next, add the mushrooms and some salt and pepper and cook until the mushrooms have released all their liquid, about 5 minutes more. Add the peas and cook until heated through, another 2 minutes. Keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and salt generously. Cook the cavatelli pasta to al dente, 4 to 5 minutes for fresh, or according to the package instructions. Set a strainer over a large heatproof measuring cup in the sink and carefully drain the pasta, reserving 2 cups of pasta water.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. When melted, add the Pecorino Romano and 1 cup pasta water, whisking vigorously. Whisk in the cream. Add the pasta and toss to coat. Season with salt and add additional pasta water if the sauce is too thick. Stir in the mushroom mixture.
  • Serve immediately, garnishing with additional freshly ground black pepper and freshly grated cheese.
  • Combine the 00 and semolina flours with the salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade; pulse a couple times. Add the olive oil and 1 cup room-temperature water to the flour mixture and pulse a few more times. Mix until a shaggy mass forms, then turn out onto a clean surface. Knead vigorously until the dough is smooth, elastic and bounces back when pressed, about 10 minutes.
  • Cut the dough in half and work with one piece at a time (cover the other piece with a clean, damp kitchen towel). Using a bench scraper or knife, cut a walnut-sized piece of dough and roll it into a thin rope about 1/3 inch in diameter. Using the 4 fingers of your hand (no thumb), roll the rope of dough back and forth until it is a long, slender, tube-like shape (but not enclosed like a tube). Halve the pieces of pasta. Set aside on a clean towel sprinkled with semolina flour. Repeat with the remaining dough. Rest the pasta for 30 minutes.
  • To cook, generously salt a large pot of boiling water. Add the cavatelli and cook until al dente, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and use with your sauce recipe of choice.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your sauce will be. If you can, use fresh tomatoes from your garden or a local farmer's market.
  • Brown the meat well: Browning the meat adds flavor and depth to the sauce. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the meat will steam instead of brown.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your sauce. Try using onions, celery, carrots, bell peppers, and mushrooms.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to develop and meld together. The longer you simmer the sauce, the better it will taste.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Use salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to taste. You can also add a pinch of sugar to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.

Conclusion:

Inger's spaghetti sauce is a delicious and versatile recipe that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner, or for a special occasion. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is sure to become a family favorite.
