FRESH TOMATO, BASIL, AND GARLIC SAUCE OVER ANGEL HAIR PASTA



Fresh Tomato, Basil, and Garlic Sauce over Angel Hair Pasta image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 48m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds ripe tomatoes
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 oregano sprig
Pinch chili flakes
1 teaspoon sugar
1 pound dried angel hair pasta
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup chiffonade basil, plus whole sprigs for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and prepare an ice water bath. Cut a small "x" on the bottom of each tomato. In batches, place the tomatoes in the boiling water and blanch them for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the skins are easy to peel away. Remove and immediately plunge into the ice bath. Peel the tomatoes and halve horizontally. Squeeze out the seeds, using your fingers to get them all. Roughly chop the peeled and seeded tomatoes. Set aside. (You can also use whole peeled canned tomatoes. Simply drain them, seed, and roughly chop).
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and heat. When the oil is hot, add the onions and garlic and saute for 2 minutes. Add the thyme leaves, oregano sprig, and chili flakes and saute until the garlic begins to turn golden brown. Add the tomatoes and the sugar and stir well. Lower the heat and cook slowly until the mixture is fairly dry, about 15 minutes.
  • Cook the angel hair pasta in boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce. Add the Parmesan and basil and toss well. Place in a large pasta bowl and garnish with Parmesan and basil sprigs.

ANGEL-HAIR PASTA WITH FRESH TOMATO SAUCE



Angel-Hair Pasta with Fresh Tomato Sauce image

Provided by Ian Knauer

Categories     Garlic     Pasta     Tomato     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Lemon     Basil     Summer     Gourmet

Yield Makes 6 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small garlic clove
3 lb tomatoes
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 lb dried capellini (angel-hair pasta)
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
Accompaniments: finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
extra-virgin olive oil for drizzling (optional)

Steps:

  • Mince garlic and mash to a paste with a pinch of salt using a large heavy knife.
  • Core and coarsely chop two thirds of tomatoes. Halve remaining tomatoes crosswise, then rub cut sides of tomatoes against large holes of a box grater set in a large bowl, reserving pulp and discarding skin. Toss pulp with chopped tomatoes, garlic paste, lemon juice, salt, sugar (if using), and pepper. Let stand until ready to use, at least 10 minutes.
  • While tomatoes stand, cook pasta in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, until al dente, about 2 minutes. Drain in a colander and immediately add to tomato mixture, tossing to combine. Sprinkle with basil.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: This will ensure the best flavor for your sauce.
  • Roast the tomatoes before adding them to the sauce: This will help to concentrate their flavor and make them even sweeter.
  • Add a touch of cream or butter to the sauce: This will help to make it rich and creamy.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Be sure to add enough salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means that it should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it.
  • Toss the pasta with the sauce immediately after cooking: This will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
  • Garnish with fresh basil: This will add a pop of color and flavor to your dish.

Conclusion:

Angel hair pasta with basil tomatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The roasted tomatoes add a wonderful depth of flavor to the sauce, and the fresh basil adds a bright, herbaceous note. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
