I adopted this recipe in Aug. 2006 & will add input whenever I prepare it. Original comments: The best vodka sauce I've ever had. Restaurants wish they had this recipe. Really, it's true. Ingredients:
olive oil, to cover 1/4 inch thick |
1 tablespoon butter |
4 garlic cloves, chopped |
2 1/2 lbs plum tomatoes, diced (about 10) |
salt and pepper, to taste |
1/2 cup vodka |
1/4 lb prosciutto, chopped |
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped (not dried! must be fresh!!) |
1/2 pint heavy cream |
Directions:
1. In a large frying/saute pan add oil, butter and garlic, saute on low flame until oil starts to bubble.
2. Add tomatoes, salt and pepper.
3. Cook covered on a low flame for about 30 minutes.
4. Add vodka.
5. Cook uncovered for 25 minutes.
6. Add prosciutto- cook 5 more minutes.
7. Add basil and heavy cream- cook just 5 more minutes.
8. SERVE IT NOW!
9. I like this over penne pasta.
10. I only use Barilla.
