RED SAUCE AND SPAGHETTI



Red Sauce and Spaghetti image

Provided by Food Network

Time 33m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (28-ounce) can pelati tomatoes*
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1/3 red onion, medium diced
3 cloves garlic, sliced into chunks
Pinch red pepper flakes, optional
2 handful fresh basil, torn, plus more for serving
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound spaghetti, for serving
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese, for serving

Steps:

  • In a food processor, puree the tomatoes to a smooth creamy consistency.
  • Add olive oil to a large pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the onions and saute until they are soft, and before it actually starts browning a bit, add the garlic. If you'd like to make the sauce spicier, add a pinch red pepper, optional.
  • Add the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.
  • Simmer on a medium-low flame for about a half hour. Thrive for balance in the consistency of the sauce, it has to be fluid but it should not look overly wet. A few minutes before taking the sauce off the fire, add half the basil and season with salt and pepper.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large spaghetti squash

  • Sprinkle salt and pepper on spaghetti squash halves, add butter then put in baking pan with 1/4 cup water.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 for 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right spaghetti squash. Look for one that is firm and has a deep yellow color. Avoid squash that has blemishes or soft spots.
  • Pierce the squash with a fork before cooking. This will help the steam escape and prevent the squash from exploding in the microwave.
  • Cook the squash until it is tender. The squash should be easy to pierce with a fork when it is done.
  • Let the squash cool slightly before handling. The squash will be very hot when it comes out of the microwave. Let it cool for a few minutes before handling it.
  • Use a fork to scrape the squash into spaghetti-like strands. This is the easiest way to get the squash into the desired shape.
  • Add your favorite sauce to the squash. You can use a simple tomato sauce, a creamy Alfredo sauce, or any other sauce that you like.
