basic basil tomato pasta

get the basic done first

perfect match for basil and tomato. tasted so original, basic. But the problem for tomato is that always cant really extract the perfume and taste out of it, especially when it is overcooked, all the taste will gone! probably roasted it before put it in?

but then the spaghetti wouldn't get enough juice......

any idea?

  1. prolly they don't fully cook the tomatoes...
    try using some pasta cooking water as it's salty and has flavour to it... that's what they always do anyway...

    add the tomatoes at the end then add a bit pasta cooking water, cover it for 2-3 mins then should be done.

    do you plant basil at home? you have whole leaves...
