Fresh Tomato Pasta Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package dry pasta
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 medium tomato
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pinch salt
Directions
step 1: Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
step 2: Coarsely chop the tomato and transfer to a small bowl. Sprinkle the tomato chunks with basil, olive oil, and salt. Set aside.
step 3: Once the water is boiling, stir in the rigatoni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander, and then return the pasta to the pot.
step 4: Pour the tomato mixture over the pasta and toss to mix.
