This is the perfect sauce for any kind of pasta, quick and easy. Please remember that pasta doesn’t have to swim in sauce. For Italian standards, this is the perfect quantity for 6 oz. (or 170 g.) of dry pasta.
Ingredients:
(for 2 people) A V B Gf
- 1 cup of homemade tomato sauce (see my recipe)
- ½ cup of pitted kalamata olives
- 1 Tbsp. of capers
- 3 Tbsp. EVOO
- 1 pich of salt
Put the ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and cook for 10 minutes. Do not overcook.If you are making the tomato sauce from scratch, to get this amount of sauce use 1 lb. of ripe tomatoes, 1/2 clove of garlic, 1/8 of yellow onion, and a few leaves of basil. Proceed like in the basic tomato sauce recipe and add the capers, olives, salt and EVOO during the last ten minutes of cooking.
