Categories     pasta

Time 18m

Number Of Ingredients 12

8oz (220 grams) pasta
1 Tbsp olive oil or extra virging olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
9oz (250 grams) cherry tomatoes, cut into halves
½ tsp dried basil
¼ tsp fine salt, plus more to taste
⅛ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
5oz (150 grams) baby spinach
¼ heaped cup (30 grams) grated parmesan cheese
grated parmesan cheese
freshly cracked pepper
extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with water and place over high heat to bring it to a boil. Once boiling, add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the package directions. Reserve about ½ cup of cooking water, and drain the pasta.
  • While you're waiting for the water to boil, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 45-60 seconds).
  • Add the tomatoes, basil, salt and a freshly cracked pepper. Sauté the tomatoes until the skins burst and the tomatoes begin to release their juices. Keep the heat to medium-low, stir and make sure the garlic doesn't burn.
  • Once the tomatoes begin to break down add the spinach, a large handful at a time, and stir it into the tomatoes until the spinach is wilted but still bright green (it should take max a couple of minutes).
  • At this point the tomatoes have created a sauce-like mixture on the bottom of the pan. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  • Add the cooked and drained pasta to the pan, the parmesan cheese and a touch of pasta cooking water. Toss until the pasta is coated in the sticky sauce and everything is combined (you don't need all the reserved cooking water, but use just as much as needed to make everything nice and moist).
  • Serve with some grated parmesan cheese, seme freshly cracked black pepper, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil if you wish.

SPINACH AND TOMATO SAUCE



Spinach and Tomato Sauce image

My mother in-law is an awesome cook and this was the first meal she made for me when my husband and I were dating. Since then anyone I have ever made this for raves about it and makes it themselves. My kids absolutely love it (they are 5 and 7) and the spinach doesn't scare them away. Even our black lab knows when it's being served for dinner and waits to lick the plates, although there is not much left at the end of this meal. .
