Ingredients

How to make it

  • If you use fresh tomatoes, start from there:
  • 1. Remove the leaves of the tomatoes and dump it into boiling water, dump them there for about 30 seconds.
  • 2. Prepare a bowl full of freezing water.
  • 3. Throw your tomatoes into the freezing water.
  • 4. Start peeling them and remove the white/yellow section where the fruit is attached to the branch.
  • Lazy people, start here :D :
  • 1. In a large pan, cover the bottom with olive oil, be generous on oil and start chopping the garlic and when the oil is hot, remove the flame to medium heat and throw that in. You just want to infuse it, not cook the garlic.
  • 2. Dump your tomatoes in the pan and try to break them while they cook.
  • 3. After about 5 minutes, add a nice pinch of sea salt, no table salt and add about 24 leaves of basil.
  • 5. Let cook for 10 minutes and remove the basil from the pan, throw that in the trash.
  • 6. Let the sauce get thicker and before your pasta are completely cook, just throw that in and let them finish cooking.
  • 7. Serve into a bowl, chop the rest of the basil and top with that and grind some fresh Pecorino cheese. Drizzle a bit of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)

    Sounds like a winner. Have a question: "a nice tablespoon of sea salt" sounds like a lot of salt even though it's less "salty". No oregano or a pinch of crushed red peppers?
