This recipe is from Quick Vegetarian Pleasures by Jeanne Lemlin. I have made this a million times and never get tired of it. This is a simple recipe where the result is more than the sum of its parts. I suggest using good quality tomatoes, it really does make a difference here. Don't worry about the red pepper, it's not a spicy dish.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This is especially true for the tomatoes and basil, which are the main flavors in this dish.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Fettuccine should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. The olive oil will add flavor and richness to the dish. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice, but a good quality regular olive oil will also work.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. You can add other ingredients to this dish to suit your taste, such as cooked chicken, shrimp, or vegetables.
