Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Gluten-free fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 800 grams Canned crushed tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 10 Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
- Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, serve separately)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Add the gluten-free fettuccine pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Stir occasionally.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes and tomato paste, mixing well.
Add the dried oregano, dried basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the skillet and stir to combine.
Reduce the heat to simmmer and let the sauce cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and the flavors meld together.
Once the fettuccine is cooked, drain it and add it to the skillet with the tomato sauce.
Toss the pasta in the sauce to ensure it is well coated.
Serve the gluten-free fettuccine hot, garnished with fresh basil leaves.
Offer grated Parmesan cheese on the side for those who wish to add it to their dish.
