Classic pasta dish, irresistible

Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente. Finely dice the onions and fry them in hot oil. Roughly dice the tomatoes and fry them with the onions. I recommend soaking the tomatoes in boiling water for a few minutes and peeling them. Add the tomato paste and sambal oelek. Season with salt and sugar. Continue frying for several minutes. Once there is almost no liquid left, add a splash of water and the Toscana spread. Turn off the heat and continue simmering until the sauce reaches the desired consistency. Drain the cooked pasta, add butter, and serve with the sauce.
