Vodka Sauce
When it comes to making pasta at home, this is the sauce I rely on the most. It’s a riff on Gigi Hadid’s vodka sauce recipe that I saw on TikTok and has become a staple in our home every since.
We serve two with this recipe and double it if we’re serving four!
Ingredients:
Pasta of your choice
¼ cup olive oil
Minced garlic
½ red onion, diced
½ small can of tomato paste
½ cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon butter
¼ cup parmesan cheese
Basil, chopped, to serve
Salt, dried parsley and pepper to taste
Steps:
Start boiling your pasta and DO NOT DRAIN until you save back ¼ cup of pasta water. We’ll need that later!
At the same time, heat up your olive oil and get that garlic/red onion cooking until the red onion has faded in color.
Then add in your tomato paste. Give it a few minutes to get darker in color.
Add in your heavy cream and red pepper flakes.
This is the time where we add in ¼ cup of pasta water along with the finished pasta.
Mix it all together then add in your butter & parmesan cheese.
Add salt, dried parsley and pepper to taste.
Serve with some chopped basil and extra parmesan cheese on top!
