We serve this over meatloaf or on it's own with crusty bread and a salad. Very simple but tasty. Ingredients:
1 lb ditalini |
3 -4 garlic cloves, chopped |
1/2 onion, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce |
salt and pepper |
1 (9 ounce) box frozen green peas |
grated cheese, for passing |
Directions:
1. Put a medium pot of water on the stove over high heat for pasta. When water comes to a boil, add salt to water and cook pasta to al dente, with a bite to it.
2. In a large, deep skillet, preheated over moderate heat, cook garlic, onion, and crushed pepper in extra-virgin olive oil for 3 to 4 minutes.
3. Add tomato sauce to the pan. When tomatoes come to a bubble, reduce heat to simmer. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
4. When pasta is cooked to al dente, drain well and set near stove. Add the green peas to the sauce. Stir to combine and heat peas through.
5. Add pasta to sauce. Keep turning pasta in sauce until pasta begins to absorb sauce, about 1 minute.
6. Transfer pasta to a serving platter.
