Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over moderately low heat. Add the onion, garlic, red pepper flakes and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until thick, about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally during cooking.
  3. During the last 10 minutes of cooking, put a large pot of water on the stove and bring to a boil, getting ready for the pasta.
  4. Mash the tomatoes with a potato masher until all large pieces are broken up. (Original recipe says to run through a food mill, but I don't think it's necessary)
  5. Add the heavy cream and bring the sauce to a boil over moderate heat.
  6. Add the shrimp and basil and cook just until the shrimp are pink, about 4 minutes.
  7. Add salt to the pot of boiling water, then add the pasta. Cook until the pasta is just done, about 3 minutes. Drain.
  8. Toss the pasta with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
  9. The original recipe says to serve the pasta topped with the sauce, but we like to just mix it all together in the pot and serve already coated.
  10. You can pass freshly grated parmesan at the table, if desired.
