Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make pasta with tomato paste? Prepare all the necessary products. Take pasta in any desired shape: some like shells, some like feathers, and some really like spaghetti. Vegetable oil can be anything: expensive olive oil or cheap sunflower oil. But since oil is needed for frying, it must be refined so as not to burn in the pan.

Step 2

Step 2
First, let the pasta cook. To do this, boil water in a saucepan. Place pasta only in boiling water, otherwise they will definitely stick together. Salt the water to taste.

Step 3

Step 3
Add pasta.

Step 4

Step 4
Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking to the pan or sticking together. The time for which pasta should be cooked is always written on the package, so you will have to study it carefully.

Step 5

Step 5
While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce. Peel the onion and cut into small cubes. If you like to feel pieces of vegetables in the finished sauce, cut larger, if you like a more homogeneous sauce, cut smaller.

Step 6

Step 6
Heat oil in a frying pan, add chopped onion.

Step 7

Step 7
Then add chopped garlic. I put it through the press. But you can also chop the garlic with a knife or grate it on a fine grater. If you donʼt have fresh garlic, you can use garlic powder.

Step 8

Step 8
Fry everything, stirring, until golden brown. This will take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 9

Step 9
Add tomato paste. I prefer to use homemade tomato paste, but you can use store-bought tomato paste and replace it with ketchup.

Step 10

Add salt and sugar to taste. Boil the sauce until thick. This will take about 5 minutes. Then remove the sauce from the heat.

Step 11

Step 11
Drain the pasta in a colander and place on a plate.
