Nutrition & ingredients
Ingredients
serves 4- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 medium (or a few small) Spanish onion(s), chopped or sliced to yield 2½ cups
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced or sliced
- ¼ – ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (If you are sensitive to heat, just use a pinch and adjust at the end. The ½ teaspoon makes for a seriously spicy sauce.)
- 1½ teaspoons dried oregano (optional — I don’t use. I love dried oregano, but I don’t always love it in tomato sauce.)
- 1 cup vodka
- two 28-ounce cans peeled plum tomatoes (56 ounces total)
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- ¾ pound penne pasta or whatever shape you like
- 4 tablespoons fresh oregano or basil (I use basil)
- ¼ to 1 cup heavy cream
- grated Parmigiano or Pecorino
