Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces Gluten-free pasta
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 28 ounces Canned crushed tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Add the gluten-free pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the saucepan. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the sauce to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, and allow it to cook for about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and return it to the pot or a large serving bowl.
Pour the prepared tomato sauce over the pasta and toss until the pasta is well coated with the sauce.
Serve the pasta hot, garnished with freshly chopped basil if using.
