Spaghetti With Fresh Tomato Sauce Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: spaghetti, olive oil, garlic, cherry tomato, salt, pepper, white wine, parmesan cheese, fresh basil

Provided by Jody Duits

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb spaghetti
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups cherry tomato
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 cup white wine
1 cup parmesan cheese
½ cup fresh basil, chopped

Steps:

  • Cook spaghetti in boiling salted water until it's al dente. Reserve 1 cup (235 ml) of the pasta water before draining.
  • While the spaghetti is cooking, heat olive oil in a large pan (it should be large enough to toss the pasta in). Add garlic and tomatoes, and stir until well-incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook tomatoes down for 5 minutes until they soften and release some of their juices.
  • Then add the wine and allow that to reduce for 5-10 minutes until you're left with a syrupy sauce.
  • Add the pasta to your sauce, along with a splash of pasta water and toss to coat it for about 1-2 minutes so the pasta finishes cooking and absorbs the flavor of the sauce.
  • Add the parmesan and basil. Add another small splash of pasta water, if needed. Toss until the cheese is melted down and you're left with a smooth sauce.
  • Gradually add small amounts of pasta water, as needed, until the sauce reaches your desired smoothness.
  • Top off with extra parmesan and basil and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

PASTA WITH FRESH TOMATO SAUCE



Pasta With Fresh Tomato Sauce image

I have been cooking a version of this dish practically since I first encountered it in a "60-Minute Gourmet" column, the brainchild of the late Pierre Franey, in January 1986. Why Pierre published the recipe in mid-winter is a mystery. To make the sauce my way you chop tomatoes; you put them in fat, whether that's olive oil, butter or, I suppose, rendered bacon fat; you cook them until they've broken down a bit and given up their liquid; and you dress pasta with the resulting sauce. (Pierre peeled the tomatoes first, because that was his style. He was a chef!) With good tomatoes, you can make this sauce in its most basic form - with no more than tomato, oil and salt - and it will be terrific. But you can jazz it up in a variety of ways; butter in place of oil changes its character noticeably. Parmesan is an obvious and welcome addition. Cooking a bit of chopped onion or minced garlic in the butter or oil - with or without rosemary, tarragon or thyme - before adding the tomatoes adds depth. Chopped basil at the end ... well, to me this is practically essential.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Salt
3 to 5 tablespoons butter or olive oil
1 1/2 pounds tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 pound linguine or other long pasta
1/2 cup shredded fresh basil leaves, if desired

  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break up, about 10 minutes, adding salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Meanwhile, cook the pasta until done; drain.
  • Toss together pasta and sauce, along with basil and Parmesan, if you like. Taste and adjust the seasoning and serve.

PASTA WITH FRESH TOMATO SAUCE AND RICOTTA



Pasta With Fresh Tomato Sauce and Ricotta image

This wonderful pasta is made with nothing more than fresh tomato sauce and good ricotta, plus a little pecorino. It's most delicious if you keep the pasta quite al dente; use just enough sauce, no more; give it a good pinch of crushed red pepper; and season it with enough salt of course.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     easy, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound dried pasta, such as farfalle or penne
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons butter, softened
Crushed red pepper (optional)
2 ½ cups Quick Fresh Tomato Sauce, warm (see recipe)
6 ounces ultra-fresh ricotta, at room temperature
Grated pecorino
Basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in a large pot of well-salted water, making sure to keep it quite al dente.
  • Put butter in a wide deep skillet over medium heat. Add drained pasta to the pan and season with salt, pepper and crushed red pepper, if using.
  • Add tomato sauce gradually and stir to coat pasta, using only enough sauce for a light coating (you may not need the entire 2 1/2 cups).
  • Transfer pasta to a warm serving bowl and dot top with spoonfuls of ricotta. Sprinkle lightly with pecorino and garnish with a few torn basil leaves.

TOMATO AND GARLIC PASTA



Tomato and Garlic Pasta image

There is nothing nicer than the flavor of fresh tomatoes. You can use canned, but the trouble you take to prepare this dish is worth it. You prepare the sauce while the pasta is cooking, no long hours of waiting. Great if you want meatless pasta.

Provided by ALMA-LOU

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (8 ounce) package angel hair pasta
2 pounds tomatoes
4 cloves crushed garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon tomato paste
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Place tomatoes in a kettle, and cover with cold water. Bring just to the boil. Pour off water, and cover again with cold water. Peel. Cut into small pieces.
  • Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
  • In a large skillet or saute pan, saute the garlic in enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan. The garlic should just become opaque, not brown. Stir in the tomato paste. Immediately stir in the tomatoes, and salt and pepper. Reduce heat, and simmer until the pasta is ready; add the basil.
  • Drain the pasta, but do not rinse in cold water. Toss with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil, and then mix into the sauce. Reduce the heat as low as possible. Keep warm, uncovered, for about 10 minutes when it is ready to serve. Garnish generously with fresh Parmesan cheese.
  • VARIATIONS: Saute fresh quartered mushrooms with the garlic, or add shoestring zucchini along with the tomato.

SPAGHETTI WITH FRESH TOMATO AND BASIL SAUCE



Spaghetti With Fresh Tomato and Basil Sauce image

This recipe came to The Times in 2003 from the chef Scott Conant, who was then cooking at his restaurant L'Impero in Manhattan. It is simple, classic Italian fare that makes the most of summer's tomatoes, but you can also make it with hothouse offerings and it will be delicious.

Provided by The New York Times

Categories     dinner, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pounds fresh plum tomatoes, blanched, peeled, seeded and quartered
3 ounces olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 pinch crushed red-pepper flakes
1 pound dry spaghetti
2 ounces extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
6 leaves fresh basil, shredded
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Blanch the tomatoes and remove the skins. Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Cut the tomatoes crosswise. Set aside in a bowl.
  • Heat 3 ounces olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until it smokes slightly. Add tomatoes, salt, pepper and crushed red pepper. Since the tomatoes will reduce and the salt will be concentrated, it is better to season initially with a lighter hand.
  • Chop the tomatoes with a potato masher until they are in fine chunks and all their liquid is released. Be sure they are chopped and crushed fine, for a semichunky sauce. Simmer for 25 minutes over medium heat.
  • While the sauce simmers, heat the water for the pasta. Cook the spaghetti in salted water about half of the way cooked. Drain, reserving some of the water.
  • Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add the pasta to the sauce and cook over medium-high heat until all the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is al dente. If the sauce is over-reduced, use the pasta cooking liquid to adjust it.
  • At the last moment, remove the pan from the heat; add the extra-virgin olive oil, butter, basil and cheese. Mix thoroughly until the pasta is an orangy color. Taste again and adjust the salt if necessary. Remove to a platter. Serve.

Tips:

  • Roast the tomatoes before making the sauce: This concentrates their flavor and makes them sweeter.
  • Use a variety of tomatoes: This will give your sauce a more complex flavor.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Simmer it gently for 30-45 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to your liking.
  • Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta: Spaghetti, penne, or rigatoni are all good choices.

Conclusion:

This pasta with fresh tomato sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The roasted tomatoes give the sauce a wonderfully rich and flavorful taste, and the fresh basil adds a bright, herbaceous note. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table!
