This is simple..and if you've never had pancetta, it's an Italian bacon..it's not smoked the way our bacon is but still offers a nice flavor.





**Pasta with Pancetta and Tomato Sauce**





6 ounces pancetta, diced


2 tablespoons olive oil


1 onion, chopped


Sea salt


2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped


Pinch dried crushed red pepper flakes


1 (28-ounce) can tomato puree


1 pound linguine


1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano





Add the pancetta to a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and saute until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the onion and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato puree. Simmer uncovered over medium-low heat until the sauce thickens slightly and the flavors blend, about 15 minutes. Season the sauce with salt, to taste.


Meanwhile, boil the linguine in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.





Toss the linguine with the sauce in the skillet, adding some of the reserved cooking liquid until the pasta is moist but being careful not to dilute the sauce. Toss with the cheese. Season with salt, to taste.
Here's one of my favorites and it's really simple.


Cook Penne pasta, and set aside.


In a deep frying pan, pour some Olive Oil in, chop up a few cloves of Garlic, and simmer with the Olive Oil. til golden.


Add the Penne Macaroni, a small can of Artichoke hearts, some Sundried Tomatoes, and some Black Olives. Simmer together, toss till it's all mixed. It's called ';Penne Amore' in some restaurants, and it's really good...


If you have a little spaghetti sauce, you can add a bit to the mixture, if you want.


Hope you enjoy this!
Lots of ingredients, but it's really easy and good.
