    Penne a la Vodka


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2-3 Cloves Garlic
    1/2 or 1/4 Diced White Onion
    2-3 Shallots
    Heavy Cream
    Vodka or Pepper Flavored Vodka
    15-ounce can of crushed tomatoes
    Olive Oil, Fresh Basil Leaves, Salt, Pepper, Oregano

    Recipe



    In a sauce pan, pour in 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and sautee the sliced shallots, garlic and diced oninons. Continue to sautee until the onions become clearer in color and slightly yellowish (do not burn!). Add about a half cup of vodka and allow to cook out all the alcohol. Add the can of tomatoes, and stir every few minutes. Add in seasonings such as oregano, salt, pepper and/or some fresh basil leaves and then add in a quarter cup of heavy cream. The sauce should look pinkish (add less cream if you like, or a little bit more, but not too much as it should only taste slightly creamy, not like the cream itself). This sauce should be ready in 20-30 minutes. This is best served with penne rigatte. This recipe should be able to serve at least 4.
