Spaghetti Al Pomodoro Recipe

• कुल समय: 21 minutes

सामग्री

240 g (8.5 oz) dry spaghetti

700 g (1.5 lb or about 5–6 cups halved) plum cherry tomatoes

2 small shallots, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, unpeeled

1 bunch fresh basil (leaves only)

70 ml (⅓ cup or 4–5 tbsp) olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Reserved pasta water (as needed)

निर्देश

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the unpeeled garlic and chopped shallots. Sauté until soft.

Add the halved tomatoes and most of the basil leaves. Stir, cover, and cook for 15 minutes.

Uncover, season with salt, and cook for another 5 minutes.

Strain the mixture through a sieve to make a smooth sauce.

Return the sauce to the skillet. Add a splash of reserved pasta water if it is too thick.

Cook the spaghetti in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and add it to the sauce along with a few fresh basil leaves. Toss for 1 minute.

Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan if desired.

Tip: Plum cherry tomatoes give a perfect sweet-tangy flavor! 🍅

Simple, fresh, and delicious.

Enjoy!
