    List of Ingredients


    • 4 Tbsp. butter
    • 2 Tbsp. salad oil
    • 2 medium sized onions, peeled and finely chopped
    • 1/2 to 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 2 cups canned tomatoes
    • 1/8 tsp. salt
    • 1/4 tsp. basil
    • 1 bay leaf
    • 1 Tbsp. cornstarch
    • 1 Tbsp. cold water
    • 8 oz. noodles
    • 3 cups finely grated old cheddar cheese
    • 1/2 to 3/4 cup pimento stuffed olive slices


    Instructions


    1. Combine 2 Tbsp. butter and salad oil in saucepan over low heat; add onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently until onion begins to brown. Add tomatoes, sugar, salt, pepper, basil and bay leaf. Bring to boiling point, stirring gently to avoid breaking up tomatoes and simmer about 15 min.; remove and discard bay leaf. Blend cornstarch and cold water until mixture is smooth; add about 1/2 cup hot tomato mixture and blend thoroughly, then stir it into remaining mixture in saucepan. Cook over moderately high heat, stirring constantly until thick. Remove from heat. Cook noodles, drain, rinse with hot water, then drain again thoroughly. Toss in a large bowl with remaining butter, and 2 cups cheese; add tomato sauce and olive slices and toss the second time. Put in a 7-cup baking dish, sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake in 350 oven for 30 to 45 minutes. Yield: 6-8 servings.
