Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound fresh or dried green linguine
Salt to taste if desired
1 pound red, ripe tomatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, or 1 tablespoon dried basil

Steps:

  • Bring to the boil 2 quarts water, or enough to cover the pasta generously when it is added. Add salt.
  • Remove and discard the cores from the tomatoes. Peel tomatoes. Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. There should be about 2 1/2 cups.
  • Heat the oil in a saucepan and add garlic and pepper flakes. Cook briefly without browning and add the tomatoes. Stir and cook about 1 minute.
  • Meanwhile, add linguine to the boiling water. If fresh linguine is used, cook 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. If dried pasta is used, cook 8 to 10 minutes or to the desired degree of doneness.
  • Drain pasta and return it to the hot kettle. Stir in butter and toss. Pour sauce over all and sprinkle with basil. Serve.

This was a quick and easy meal to make. The sauce was a little bland for my taste, but I added some extra garlic and oregano and it was perfect. I would definitely make this again.
