Buon giorno a tutti. In this episode, Nonna Mia, la nonna di tutti (everyone's grandmother) quickly whips up penne alla vodka. To make this dish, you will need:
- 1 pound of penne (or pasta of your liking)
- 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic, minced
- chili flakes, to taste
- sea salt, to taste
- 1 litre of passata (puree) or crushed tomatoes
- 1/4 cup vodka
- 1/2 cup cream
- 1/4 cup of grated cheese
- basil leaves
- oregano if desired
Put a well-salted pot on the boil, to cook up a pound of penne. Concurrently, in another pan, heat 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) to sauté one onion, finely chopped and 2 garlic, minced. After about 4-5 minutes of sautéing, add in your chili flakes and sea-salt, to taste. Sauté another minute.
Then add in the litre of tomato, be it passata, chopped tomatoes, or even whole tomatoes, that you crush yourself. Allow to simmer a few minutes then add 1/4 cup of vodka and simmer about 10 minutes. Then add in 1/2 cup of cream and about 1/4 cup of grated cheese (Nonna uses Grana Padana in this episode) and about 6 fresh basil leaves. Optionally, you can add some oregano as well.
Fish the pasta out of the water, and add it into the sauce pan and allow to simmer about a minute together - this helps the pasta absorb the sauce. You can reserve some pasta water and add as needed, to adjust the consistency to your liking. Plate, top with more cheese, and a basil leaf, and buon appetito! See, an easy and quick crowd-pleaser that Vegetarians can enjoy as well, in less than 30 minutes!
