Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the tomatoes, tomato purée, and olive oil in a pan, season well with salt and black pepper, then bring to the boil. Reduce the sauce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes.


  2. 2

    Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling salted water for 10 minutes, or until it is cooked but still has a bit of bite to it. Drain, keeping back a tiny amount of the cooking water. Return the pasta to the pan and toss together. Toss with the tomato sauce, sprinkle with Parmesan, season with more black pepper, and serve.
