Ingredients

    2 lbs. Red Ripe Tomatoes, 4 large whole (3" dia)
    Garlic, 3 cloves
    Olive Oil, 3 tbsp
    Salt, 1.25 tsp
    Pepper, black, .25 tsp
    Basil, 100 grams, 2/3 c.
    Pasta, cooked, 1 lb. 16 oz
    Parmesan Cheese, grated, .33 cup

Directions

Serves 4


In food processor or blender, combine the tomatoes, garlic, oil, salt and pepper and puree. Add the basil and pulse just to mix.

In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the fusilli until just done, about 13 minutes. Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce and the Pamesan cheese. Let sit for about 1 minute to allow the pasta to absorb some of the liquid. Serve with additional Pamesan.
