Ingredients
- 1 (28 ounce) can Tuttorosso® Italian Inspirations Crushed Tomatoes Chunky Style
- 1 (6 ounce) can Tuttorosso® Tomato Paste Roasted Garlic
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 1/3 cups water
- 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 pound spaghetti
- 2 burrata, balls
- basil, fresh, for garnish
Instructions
Step one
In a medium-low heat pan, mix the Tuttorosso Italian Inspirations Crushed Tomatoes and Tuttorosso Tomato Paste with Roasted Garlic. Season with salt and pepper, setting aside about 1 cup of the sauce for later use. Add water to the remaining sauce and keep it simmering to stay warm.
Step two
In another pan, sauté the thinly sliced garlic and chopped chilies in olive oil for a couple of minutes. Add the reserved sauce (without water) to the pan, then drop in the spaghetti. Cook until the bottom of the pasta caramelizes.
Step three
Gradually add the watered-down sauce to the pasta, flipping and stirring as it cooks. Cover the pan for the last few minutes of cooking. The spaghetti should be nicely caramelized at this point.
Step four
Serve topped with burrata, a drizzle of olive oil, and fresh basil.
