Creamy Garlic Rose Pasta
Ingredients
- 500 g Penne
- 22.5 ml Olive Oil
- ½ Brown (Yellow) Onion Diced
- 4 Garlic Cloves Sliced
- 30 ml Dry White Wine
- 600 g Diced Tomatoes
- 6 g Sugar Optional
- 180 ml Thickened Cream
- 10 g Fresh Basil Torn
- Salt & Pepper To Taste
- Parmigiano Reggiano Grated
- Cracked Black Pepper To Serve
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil Drizzle
Method
- Bring a saucepan of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta 1 minute less than the packet instructions.
- Place a large high-rimmed pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and onion, and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for 45 seconds.
- Add the tomatoes, sugar, basil stalks, and seasoning to taste. Mix to combine and bring to a boil. Add the thickened cream, bring back to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 6 minutes.
- Remove and discard the basil stalks. Add the sliced basil leaves and check the seasoning. Add the pasta into the sauce straight from the saucepan, bringing along some of the pasta water. Mix to combine, adding more pasta water if needed (it helps the sauce stick to the pasta).
- Serve in bowls, grate over some Parmigiano Reggiano, and garnish with basil, cracked black pepper, and extra virgin olive oil. Dig in.

Recipe Notes
Creamy Garlic Rose Pasta Storage Instructions
Store the pasta in the fridge for up to 4 days and in the freezer for up to 4 months, both held in an airtight container. I will note that because it’s cream-based pasta, it isn’t recommended to freeze it as the sauce can split upon reheating. Only freeze as a last resort if you can’t eat it all when fresh.
Creamy Garlic Rose Pasta Reheating Instructions
To reheat, place the pasta into a large pan over medium heat. Heat it gently for 10 minutes, adding a splash of cream to freshen it up. Alternatively, place it into a microwave, add a splash of cream and heat in bursts until hot throughout.
