Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat.
• Add garlic; sauté 1 minute.
• Add tomatoes, cream, red peppers and crushed red pepper; simmer over medium heat for 2 minutes.
• Stir in 1/2 cup basil and simmer 1 minute longer; cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite.
• Drain, reserving 3/4 cup pasta cooking liquid.
• Return pasta to pot.
• Add sauce, cheese and 1/2 cup basil and toss to coat.
• Add enough reserved cooking liquid to pasta to moisten if dry.
• Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Place the tomatoes and a tablespoon or so of their oil in a small food processor along with the garlic and a good pinch of salt. Process until fairly smooth, stopping the machine and stirring down the mixture with a rubber spatula as necessary.
• Add the basil and lemon juice if you like; pulse the machine a few times to blend. Remove the paste from the machine, and stir in the nuts and just enough additional oil to make the mixture silky rather than oily. Taste and adjust seasoning.
