A SAMPLE RECIPES FROM PASTA...MADE SIMPLE:

 

PASTA ARRABBIATA

Serves 4

Ingredients:
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil,
8 plum tomatoes, diced,
2/3 cup dry white wine,
1 tablespoon sun-dried tomato paste,
2 fresh chiles,
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped,
¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley,
14 ounces dried penne,
salt and pepper,
fresh percorino cheese shavings, to garnish.

Directions:
1) Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat until almost smoking. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes.

2) Reduce the heat to low and cook for about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Using a wooden spoon, press through a nonmetallic strainer into a saucepan.

3) Add the wine, tomato paste, whole chiles, and garlic to the pan and bring to boil. Reduce the heat and simmer gently. Then remove the chiles. Check and adjust the seasoning, adding chiles back in for a hotter sauce, then stir in half the parsley.

4) Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta, bring back to the boil, and cook according to the package directions, or until tender but still firm to the bite. Add the sauce to the pasta and toss to coat.

5) Sprinkle with the remaining parsley, garnish with cheese shavings, and serve immediately.
