  • 1 pepperoncini
  • 6 basil leaves
  • Water

  • Salt
  • pepper
  • Cayenne pepper
  • Paprika powder
  • olive oil
  • 300g penne

Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 25 minutes

Simple and delicious

Finely chop the red onion and sauté with a little olive oil. Dice the tomatoes and add to the onions. Add the tomato paste. Halve the pepperoncini, remove the seeds, and then finely chop them and add them to the tomatoes. You can now let the sauce simmer with the lid on for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally. If you feel it’s getting too thick, add a little water. It’s important that the tomatoes have broken down after about 2 hours. After these two hours, add the finely chopped basil leaves and let it simmer again. Meanwhile, you can bring the water to a boil for the penne. Season the tomato sauce to your taste with salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, and pasta seasoning. Then add 4 cherry tomatoes for a bit of freshness. When the penne is ready, you can plate it up with the arrabiata sauce and serve.
