Ingredients
- 200 grams Bucatini
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 120 grams Guanciale (sliced into matchsticks)
- 60 grams red onion (sliced thinly)
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup red wine
- 400 grams whole stewed tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 30 grams pecorino romano (finely grated, plus more for serving)
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with well-salted water and bring it to a boil.
- In a frying pan over medium heat, add the olive oil and Guanciale and saute until the fat in the guanciale goes from white to translucent.
- Add the onions and chili flakes and saute until the onions are tender and the guanciale is just starting to brown. You don't need to get it crisp.
- Turn up the heat, and add the wine. Let this boil until it no longer smells like alcohol.
- Add the Bucatini to the boiling water while you finish the sauce, and set the timer for 2 minutes less than what the package says.
- Add the stewed tomatoes to the sauce, along with the tomato paste and salt.
- Use a spatula to chop up the tomatoes. Turn down the heat and let the sauce simmer until the Bucatini is done.
- When the Bucatini is cooked, drain it, reserving a bit of the boiling liquid.
- Add the Pecorino Romano to the sauce and incorporate it into the sauce.
- Add the pasta to the sauce, and stir it together, continuing to cook until the Bucatini is cooked to your liking. If your sauce is too thick, you can add a bit of the reserved boiling liquid to thin it out.
