Ingredients

  • 1 lb pasta shape of your choice (I recommend orecchiette or small shells)
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup diced shallot or red onion
  • 1 ½ tsp minced garlic (from about 2 cloves)
  • ½ cup tomato paste
  • 2 Tbsp vodka (you can omit if you don't want to use)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (can use more or less or omit altogether and add at the end to individual dishes)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
  • Chopped basil, for topping

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions. When draining, reserve about ½ cup of pasta water.
  • While pasta is cooking, add olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add shallot or onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about one minute.
  • Add tomato paste and stir. Let cook for 3-4 minutes until it's starting to brown/caramelize a bit.
  • Stir vodka into sauce and let cook for about 1 minute.
  • Add heavy cream, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
  • Add cooked pasta, reserved pasta water, and butter to skillet and toss to coat pasta in sauce. Stir in parmesan cheese.
  • Serve pasta topped with additional parmesan and chopped basil.
