Tomato-Basil Pesto Fettucine Pasta:
Salmon with Mushrooms in Creamy Buttery Sauce:
TOMATO BASIL PESTO FETTUCINE PASTA
Taste the aromatic, citrus, salty, herbal flavours in this pasta dish. The sauce is made by first sautéing the garlic and the tomato paste with olive oil before adding the basil pesto, seasoning, and tomatoes. Then the cooked fettuccine pasta added towards the end of the cooking process.
Servings (approximately): 4
Cook time (approximately): 32 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
• 300 g fettuccine
• 5 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 cups water
• 20 oz tomatoes (about 3 small-medium tomatoes), cut into chunks
• 4 tbsp basil pesto sauce (Classico® brand)
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 3/4 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 1/2 tbsp corn starch mixed with 1 1/2 tbsp water
• Olive oil (Bertolli® brand)
METHOD:
1. Prepare the tomatoes, garlic, basil pesto sauce, corn starch mixture/slurry, and seasoning. Set aside.
2. Cook the pasta as per package instructions (al dente / tender but firm), about 9-10 minutes
3. Preheat a pan over medium heat with olive oil.
4. Add the garlic. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
5. Add the tomato paste. Sauté the tomato paste until slightly caramelized, about 2 minutes.
6. Add the water, basil pesto, and seasoning into the pan. Mix until there are no tomato paste chunks.
7. Add the tomatoes. Mix. Bring to a boil over medium heat, about 3 minutes.
8. Reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan. Simmer for about 10 minutes.
9. Mix the corn starch mixture and then stir it into the pan (do not pour it all at once as it will clump). Mix until the tomato sauce has thickened and until the ingredients are well combined, about 2 minutes
10. Add the fettuccine pasta to the tomato sauce. Mix the ingredients until well combined and until the pasta has been reheated, about 3 minutes.
11. Turn off the heat.
