PINK SAUCE PASTA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta to al dente according to package instructions, then drain, reserving some of the pasta water.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil. Once the butter has melted, add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
• Add the tomato passata, dried basil, crumbled chicken bouillon cube, sugar, red chili flakes and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for a few minutes, then add the cream, milk and the shredded mozzarella.
• Add the cooked pasta, toss to combine and warm through for a few minutes. If sauce is too thick, add a splash of pasta water. Enjoy immediately!

PINK SAUCE PASTA RECIPE

Steps:

• BOIL PASTA: in salted water as per package directions, cooking a minute less (it will finish cooking in sauce). Drain and set aside.
• MAKE PINK SAUCE: While pasta is boiling, make the sauce. Heat butter (or butter/olive oil) to medium heat in a medium pan. If doubling the recipe, use a large pan. Add onions, garlic, salt, pepper and bouillon powder (and red pepper flakes if using). Gently sauté for 4-5 minutes until onions are very soft. Add sherry, if using, and cook for 1 minute. Add tomato puree, cream, Parmesan and most of the basil. Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding more salt, chili flakes, Parmesan or basil as desired.
• ASSEMBLE: Add cooked pasta to sauce. Toss to combine well with sauce and heat through for 1-2 minutes. Serve, garnished with additional chopped basil and Parmesan cheese on top of the pasta if you like.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium pan and saute onion, garlic, and bell pepper until the onion starts to turn translucent.
• Add tomatoes and about 1/4 cup of water (just enough to coat the bottom of the pan so the tomatoes don't dry up), cover, and let cook until the tomatoes fall apart, about 5-10 minutes.
• Stir everything so the mixture actually looks like tomato sauce. Boil off any excess liquid.
• Turn off heat and stir in cream, catsup, and salt. Add more cream if needed to achieve desired flavor and color.
