Dennis Farina's Pasta




Source of Recipe


posted to rc by gijane


List of Ingredients




3 beefsteak tomatoes or 4 Roma tomatoes
1 bunch fresh basil leaves
salt to taste
1 pound pasta
Butter (optional)
(Really all you need is fresh basil & tomatoes)








Recipe



Cut the tomatoes into small pieces and dice the basil into small pieces. Combine them in a bowl and sprinkle on salt to taste. Let stand for about 30 minutes. The combination will make it's own sauce. It does not need refrigeration. While the sauce is sitting boil the water for the pasta. You can use any kind of pasta you like; we use rigatoni, but my grandmother just used spaghetti. Cook & strain the pasta and add butter if you like. Stir in the sauce and enjoy.

Makes 2 to 4 servings.
