Italian Essentials Spicy Arrabbiata Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Pour the oil into a saucepan and fry the garlic over a medium heat for 1-2 mins until fragrant, but not browned. Add the chilli, fry for another minute, then add the tomatoes along with 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp sugar. Stir well to combine the ingredients and simmer gently for 20 mins, stirring regularly. The sauce will thicken slowly as it cooks.
• Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve stirred through pasta, or blend it first to create a smoother sauce if you prefer. Will keep chilled for up to five days.

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. You will need a good saucepan that is large enough to hold all the ingredients. Some people prefer this sauce smooth. If that is your choice, then you will need an immersion blender, or food processor.
• 3. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
• 4. Chop the onions, and thinly slice the garlic.
• 5. Add the olive oil into a saucepan, over medium heat.
• 6. Add the onions, and the garlic into the saucepan.
• 7. Cook and stir until the onions, soften, and begin taking on a bit of color, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• 8. Add the remainder of the ingredients (except the salt, and pepper), and reduce the heat until the sauce is slowly simmering.
• 9. Allow to gently simmer for about 15 - 20 minutes.
• 10. Chef's Note: As the sauce is simmering, taste and season with some salt and pepper.
• 11. Chef's Note: If you are using the precooked ground Italian sausage, add it in halfway through the simmering process. However, if you are planning to blend the sauce to make it smooth, do not add the sausage until after the blending.
• 12. PLATE/PRESENT
• 13. Serve with just about any kind of pasta, or use it as a sauce for a nice pizza. Let your imagination go wild. Enjoy.
• 14. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
