Ingredients

  • 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil 2 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes 6 medium tomatoes 6 garlic cloves, crushed 1 tablespoon dried oregano 1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves Coarse salt 1 pound pasta (fusilli or spaghetti) Parmesan cheese, for serving

Directions

Make chile oil: Stir together 1/2 cup oil and 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes. Let stand at room temperature at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.

Make sauce: Core tomatoes and tear into bite-size pieces directly into a serving bowl. Add garlic, remaining 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, the oregano, basil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and remaining 1/2 cup oil. Lightly crush together using a wooden spoon. Let stand at room temperature 1 to 8 hours.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add salt to taste. Add pasta; cook until al dente. Drain. Add hot pasta to tomato mixture. Discard garlic cloves. Serve with Parmesan cheese for grating and with the chile oil for drizzling.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       08/26/2012   One of our all time favorites--you just can't beat a no-cook tomato sauce on a hot summer day using fresh from the garden tomatoes. This is easily the best version of this type of preparation we've tried. Amazing use of the 'glut' of cherry tomatoes we have each year. It is somewhat delicate in flavor and we found it doesn't hold it's own against wheat pasta, go for traditional semolina instead.
