Ingredients

  • 12 oz Penne or Fusilli pasta
  • 15 oz Crushed tomatoes
  • 3 cups Vegetable or chicken broth
  • 0.5 cup Heavy cream
  • 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves, chiffonade
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 0.5 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 0.33 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 0.5 tsp Red pepper flakes(optional)
  • 1 to taste Salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent, then add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Pour in the crushed tomatoes and broth, stirring to combine the base liquid.

  4. 4

    Add the dry pasta to the pot, ensuring it is mostly submerged in the liquid.

  5. 5

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cover the pot.

  6. 6

    Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom, until the pasta is al dente and most liquid is absorbed.

  7. 7

    Stir in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the pasta.

  8. 8

    Remove from heat, fold in the fresh basil, and season with salt and pepper before serving.
