Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 c. olive oil
2 large garlic cloves chopped really fine
1 can diced tomatoes
1 8 oz can tomato sauce or you can use store bought sauce like a marinara
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
1/4 c. heavy cream
1/2 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp. parsley
6 basil leaves chopped
a pinch of sugar

Steps:

  • 1) In a large heavy saucepan, heat olive oil, then add the garlic cloves. Toss and cook on medium heat for a few minutes. Do not let garlic brown. 2) Add the tomatoes, basil, salt and pepper. Cover and cook tomatoes about 10 min. 3) Uncover and stir in parmesan cheese and then the cream slowly, then add sugar. 4) Simmer the sauce a bit for the cream to become incorporated. Add water or warm milk, if needed, to bring the sauce to desired consistency. 5) Serve with either Penne, Rigatoni, Bow Ties or your favorite shaped pasta.
