| Name: Sezbi | Date: Apr 16th, 2007 6:23 PM |
ohhhhh we have a chef over here like that...He is claled Huey...lmao without fail when myself and other friends would sit down and watch him.....he would use a HEAP of butter..we would take bets at what time in the show he would do it
He would say ok only a "lil smidge of butter" and he would basically grab his paw and scoop out a handful! haha ↑ |

| I have a real simple pasta sauce recipe I use in a pinch. It is just sliced garlic browned in some olive oil and then blended with some tomato puree. I use 6 cloves of garlic in it so it is for garlic lovers! ↑ |

My husband loves to watch "everyday italian", but not for her recipes!!! She does have good recipes. I have never made the Barefoot Contessa recipes.
I also really like Rachel Ray and Emeril. ↑ |

Okay--this is the recipe. It is from Gourmet magazine.
*************
Spaghetti with Garlic oil and Tomato
1/2 pound spaghetti
3 large garlic cloves, sliced thin lenghtwise
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/3 cup canned tomato puree (must be puree--not tomato sauce)
In a large saucepan of salted boiling water cook the spagehetti until it is al dente. While it is cooking, in a large skillet cook the garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is golden, being careful not to let it get too brown, stir in the puree and salt and pepper to taste, and cook the sauce, stirring for one minute. Keep the sauce warm. Ladle out and reserve about 1/3 cup of the pasta water, drain the spaghetti and add it to the sauce with 1/4 cup of the reserved water. Toss the spaghetti over low heat for one minute, adding the remaining reserved pasta water if desired.
This only makes two servings--so I usually double the recipe. It is quick and cheap to make! ↑ |

| When I want a quick meal I always make that recipe! You will be surprized how good it is--and simple. It is better than most sauces I let simmer all day! ↑ |
