I've come across this recipe so many times in the past and in countless instagram/tiktok vidoes with slight variations. Here is the one I followed - and it truly was incredible!
Ingredients
- 500 g Fusilli (or 4 portions of a pasta you have to hand)
- a medium Red Onion finely diced
- 5 Garlic Cloves diced
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- half cup Tomato Paste or around half a tube of it
- a good glug Vodka around a shot or two's worth
- a cup Double Cream
- 2 dried Kashmiri Chillies diced or, a tsp chilli flakes
- a tbsp Butter
- 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan
Instructions
- Bring your pasta to the boil and cook until for as long as the pack suggests - around 10 minutes.
- To a frying add your diced onion, garlic and olive oil. Stir over a medium heat until soft - around 5 minutes.
- Add in your tomato paste and stir until it looks caremelised for a few minutes. Add in your vodka until evaporated and combined.
- Stir in your cream and keep stirring for a couple of minutes, and until well combined. Add in your diced chilli or chilli flakes. Add in your butter and stir.
- Drain your pasta and add to the sauce. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
- Top with some parmesan and enjoy!
