Amatriciana Pasta
Ingredients
- Spaghetti 15 oz
- Tomatoes 35 oz
- Semi-Smoked Sausage 10 oz
- Onion 1 head
- Olive Oil 2 tablespoons
- Salt to taste
- Ground Black Pepper to taste
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Cut the bacon into small cubes. Peel the tomatoes. Dice the tomatoes into small cubes, about the same size as the bacon. Heat a little olive oil in a pan and sauté the bacon for 3–4 minutes over medium heat. Then add the finely chopped onion to the bacon and sauté together for another couple of minutes.
Step 2
Cook the spaghetti al dente — that is, remove it a little earlier than fully cooked and drain it in a colander.
Step 3
When the onion and bacon are well sautéed, add the diced tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper and simmer for about 5 minutes. I prefer to add regular ground black pepper and a little, just a pinch, of dried basil, but these are my personal preferences; you can add your favorite spices.
Step 4
Add the spaghetti to the pan, mix well, heat on low for 1–2 minutes, and remove from heat. Serve hot. I sometimes sprinkle with grated cheese or fresh herbs.
