<p>New page: {{:Events_2008_4_24}}</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Recipes | Other recipes]] | [[Recipes#Pasta. | Pasta recipes]]<br /> <br /> This I tried as an expirement because I wanted something home-cooked but quick with a low amount of washing up. Spring onions mean they don&#039;t need any more cooking than the tomatoes. It worked really well and was much more interesting than pesto!<br /> <br /> = Tomato sauce for one cooked in microwave =<br /> == Ingredients ==<br /> * 50g dried pasta shapes - fussili is ideal.<br /> * 227g tinned chopped tomatos.<br /> * 3 spring onions, skinned and chopped.<br /> * Smoked praprika to taste.<br /> * 2.5ml fresh chopped basil.<br /> <br /> == Directions ==<br /> # Get pasta into boiling water and cook for 10 minutes.<br /> # Empty tin of tomatoes into a microwave glass casserole dish (ideally that comes with a vented/ventable lid).<br /> # Sprinkle in the spring onions.<br /> # Stir well, put lid on pot.<br /> # Microwave for 1min 20 seconds on medium (600W).<br /> # Stir in the chopped basil, recover.<br /> # Microwave for 20 seconds on high.<br /> # Take 20-30ml of water from the boiling pasta and add to the sauce and allow to sit, covered.<br /> # Drain pasta.<br /> <br /> Ideally, served in a bowl.<br /> <br /> [[Recipes | Other recipes]] | [[Recipes#Pasta. | Pasta recipes]]</div>
