Red sauce pasta is a classic favorite dish since childhood.
It tastes like home and good days,
It tastes like comfort after a busy day,
It tastes like Friday noon.
It tastes like days of spring and winter,
It has been by our side in every season of the year and it’s a dish that will forever make us all happy.
My red sauce pasta is the mother of all classics,
It just has a wonderful precision that makes the difference between an ordinary red sauce pasta and an insane red sauce pasta!
It has little upgrades of happiness in it that make the bite marvelous.
There’s not one person who will bite it and won’t fall in love,
Whoever tries this pasta immediately asks for the recipe so that they can make it as well.
It’s an easy recipe, quick, simple and full of precision.
There’s no greater magic than this 🙂
Less than 20 minutes of preparation and it’s yours 🙂
Enjoy!
Happy and joyful pasta days to us all 🙂

Classic Red Sauce Pasta
Ingredients
Suitable for a family pasta pot
- 300g-400g dry pasta (can be with gluten or gluten-free)
For the tomato sauce:
- 1 small cube of butter (can be replaced with coconut oil / more olive oil)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 sliced / chopped garlic cloves (whatever you like more)
- 200g tomato paste
- ½ cup hot water
- 1 level teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Preparation
Cook the pasta according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Prepare the sauce in a different pot.
Melt the butter and olive oil and fry the garlic a little until the smell tickles your nose.
Add the tomato paste and mix with the garlic cloves and oil.
Give it a few seconds of frying, it’ll give the sauce a wonderful sweet taste.
If there are additional spices you want to add – now is the time.
Add the hot water, salt and maple syrup and mix.
Bring the sauce to a boil and reduce the heat to low heat.
Add the prepared pasta (without the pasta water) and mix until all the sauce covers it with great love.
Turn off your stove and serve with great joy 🙂
A little extra from me:
- The pasta can be kept in the fridge in a sealed box for up to 4 days.
