FRESH TOMATO, SAUSAGE, AND PECORINO PASTA



Fresh Tomato, Sausage, and Pecorino Pasta image

This is from Cooking Light's best of 2010. This was wonderful!!! I altered this recipe to my family's tastes. This is a drier dish the way I make it. If you want it saucier, decrease the pasta or increase the tomatoes. This is great with/without crushed red peppers!! FYI...ROMANO IS KEY IN THIS RECIPE!!!

PASTA WITH SPICY TOMATO SAUCE



Pasta with Spicy Tomato Sauce image

The sauce for this pantry pasta is a vegetarian take on arrabbiata and amatriciana sauces, two spicy tomato sauces from Southern Italy that include pancetta or guanciale. The authentic versions would call for grated Pecorino Romano cheese, but I've already broken with tradition here, so use either Pecorino of Parmesan.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 40m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (28-ounce) can chopped tomatoes in juice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 small dried red chili pepper, crumbled, or 1/4 teaspon red pepper flakes
Salt to taste
1 teaspoon dried oregano or 2 teaspoons slivered fresh basil
1 pound penne, bucatini, pericatelli, or spaghetti
1/2 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan

Steps:

  • Begin heating a large pot of water for the pasta.
  • Pulse the chopped tomatoes in a food processor fitted with the steel blade, or pass through the medium blade of a food mill with their juice before you begin. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, wide nonstick skillet or saucepan and add the garlic and crumbled chili (or flakes). Cook, stirring, for 30 seconds to a minute, until the garlic is translucent and begins to smell fragrant, and add the tomatoes and their juice, salt, and oregano if using. Stir and turn up the heat. When the tomatoes begin to bubble, lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring often, until thick and fragrant, 15 to 25 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Keep warm while you cook the pasta.
  • When the pasta water comes to a boil, add a tablespoon of salt and the pasta. Cook the pasta al dente, following the timing instructions on the package but checking a minute or two before the time on the package. When the pasta is done, transfer to the pan with the sauce, add the basil if using, and toss together over medium heat until it is well coated with the sauce. Add half the cheese, toss together and serve, passing the remaining cheese at the table.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tomatoes: Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best flavor. Roma tomatoes are a good choice, as they are meaty and have a low water content.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the tomatoes, don't overcrowd the pan. This will cause them to steam instead of sautéing, which will result in a watery sauce.
  • Cook the tomatoes until they are soft: Cook the tomatoes until they are soft and have released their juices. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Season the sauce to taste: Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. You can also add a pinch of sugar to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
  • Use good quality cheese: Use a good quality Pecorino Romano cheese for the best flavor. Look for a cheese that is aged for at least 12 months.

Spaghetti with tomatoes and Pecorino Romano cheese is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal.
