Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 can whole tomatoes 14.5 oz or 400 g
- 1 large handful cherry tomatoes, halved a small pack, or as many as you like!
- big pinch salt
- big pinch pepper
- 1/2 pack pasta noodles, cooked around 200 g or 8 oz
- handful fresh basil leaves
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- sprinkle grated fresh Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet until hot, then add the crushed garlic and sauté for a minute.
- Add the canned tomatoes with their juice, the cherry tomatoes, the salt and pepper.
- Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until tomatoes have softened.
- Either keep the sauce chunky as is, or remove half of the sauce to a blender, and blend until smooth and creamy. Add the blended sauce back into the skillet with the unblended sauce, and add the cooked spaghetti and toss to combine.
- Add the chopped fresh basil and the butter, and toss gently to combine. Sprinkle with lots of Parmesan cheese and drizzle with olive oil just before serving.
