I took a basic puttenesca sauce recipe and changed it to make it fit my family's tastes. It turned out wonderful, and I have served it numerous times and am always asked for the recipe. In the Summer, I skip the tomato sauce and use fresh chopped tomatoes from our garden and let it simmer longer.
Ingredients:
1/2 white onion, diced
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (3 1/2 ounce) jar capers, drained
20 large pitted black olives, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
32 ounces tomato sauce
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chiffonade
4 tablespoons parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Saute' onion, garlic and olive oil until onion is soft.
2. Add tomato sauce to pan and let simmer about 5 - 10 minute.
3. Add capers, olives, and basalmic vinegar, let simmer 20 minute.
4. Sauce is complete! Serve with your favorite pasta and garnish with parmesean cheese and fresh basil.
