| |

1 pound small shape Pasta
1/2 cup finely chopped Onion
1 - 29 ounce can of Plum Tomatoes
2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Unsalted Butter
pinch of Sugar
Fresh Parsley, chopped |
| |
Preparation:
Heat up the oil in a skillet and then add the onion. Cook it for about 10 min. or until the
onions are soft. Add few spoons of water it it gets sticky.
Drain the excess liquid from the tomatoes, chop them and add them to the onions. Simmer uncovered
for about 30 minutes. Add a good pinch of sugar to eliminate the acid from the tomatoes and
salt to taste.
Then add 1/2 cup of the excess tomato juice, cover and cook for another 10 minutes.
Pass the sauce through a vegetable ricer or blend it in a food processor.
Pour it back in the sauce pan and for the last touch add 1 tsp. unsalted
butter and cook it for another minute or two (If you like basil try adding a few fresh leaves).
The sauce is now ready for the pasta.
Garnish with Parsley
