This recipe for Pasta and Fresh Tomato Sauce is an ideal way of using Fresh Tomato Sauce. You will notice a distinct difference between your own tomato sauce and that found in jars on the supermarket shelf. I have assumed that your sauce is already made.

How to Cook Pasta and Fresh Tomato Sauce

  1. Place the pasta in a pan of lightly salted boiling water and cook according to the instructions (usually about 8 minutes). Drain in a colander and, while the pasta is draining empty the Fresh Tomato Sauce into the pan and allow it to warm. Replace the pasta in the pan and stir into the sauce making sure it is completely coated. Serve immediately, sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
If you have a little fresh Basil, sprinkle a few chopped leaves over the pasta just before serving.
 
GRAHAM'S WINE RECOMMENDATION:
Barbera d'Asti like Marchesi di Gresy Barbera d'Asti. Italian Barbera goes well with pasta, tomato-based dishes and dishes from the North of Italy.
