Quick & Easy Italian Pasta

Looking for a delectable Italian pasta dish that’s both quick and easy to whip up? Look no further than this delightful Quick & Easy Italian Pasta recipe featuring fettuccine pasta and a mouthwatering cooked tomato sauce. With just a handful of ingredients, you can create a flavoursome sauce that will tantalize your taste buds. The best part? The pasta is then tossed in this delectable sauce and finished off with a generous sprinkle of grated parmesan cheese. 

Let’s dive into this simple yet incredibly delicious recipe that will have you saying “mamma mia!” in no time.

Ingredients

  • 250 g (1/2 lb or 8.8 oz) fettuccine pasta
  • 1 big onion
  • 1 big carrot
  • 1 l tomato sauce 
  • 1 celery stalk 
  • 1 sprig of fresh basil 
  • 150 g (1/3 lb or 5.3 oz) freshly grated parmesan + more for serving, if desired 
  • olive oil
  • salt

Directions

Peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and dice or grate the carrot. 

Heat the oil in a pan and cook the onions until translucent. Add the carrots and cook for 3-4 more minutes. 

Heat the oil in a pan and cook the onions until translucent.
Add the carrots and cook for 3-4 more minutes. 

Add the tomato sauce over the onions and carrots. Season with salt. 

Add the celery stalk and sprig of basil. Bring everything to a boil. Then, simmer on low heat for 40 minutes, until the sauce has reduced. 

Add the tomato sauce over the onions and carrots. Season with salt.
Add the celery stalk and spring of basil. Bring everything to a boil.

In a large pot, bring 3.5 l of water to a boil and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Add pasta to boiling water and cook uncovered according to your package instructions. I cooked my pasta for 3-4 minutes. If you’re using fresh fettuccine pasta, then 1-2 minutes is enough. Drain the cooked pasta. 

Add half of the cooked tomato sauce in a serving bowl. Place the cooked pasta on top and add the remaining tomato sauce and grated parmesan. Mix to combine.
