ingredients
- 1 pound spaghetti
- 1 (28 ounce) can Tuttorosso Italian Inspirations Crushed Tomatoes
- 1 (6 ounce) can Tuttorosso Tomato Paste with Garlic
- 3 1/3 cups water
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 6 thinly sliced garlic cloves
- 2 dried chopped chili peppers
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 Burrata balls
- for garnish Fresh basil chiffonade
Method
Step 1
In a medium-low heat pan, mix the Tuttorosso Italian Inspirations Crushed Tomatoes and Tuttorosso Tomato Paste with Garlic. Season with salt and pepper, setting aside about 1 cup of the sauce for later use. Add water to the remaining sauce and keep it simmering to stay warm.
Step 2
In another pan, sauté the thinly sliced garlic and chopped chilies in olive oil for a couple of minutes. Add the reserved sauce (without water) to the pan, then drop in the spaghetti. Cook until the bottom of the pasta caramelizes.
Step 3
Gradually add the watered-down sauce to the pasta, flipping and stirring as it cooks. Cover the pan for the last few minutes of cooking. The spaghetti should be nicely caramelized at this point.
Step 4
Serve topped with Burrata, a drizzle of olive oil, and fresh basil.
