Easy Arrabbiata Pasta Sauce
This is a spicy tomato pasta sauce that's easily made by adding garlic and chilli peppers to passata or a few tins of chopped tomatoes. Sometimes, I add cooked bacon.

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (500g) jar tomato passata or pasta sauce

I tried this at a local restaurant and loved it. Decided to look recipe up and was delighted that it was so easy. I added 2 500 g of passata because I needed more sauce. I also used dried basil but it still tasted great. One to use when you haven't got any time either with penne or spaghetti both have great taste. - 22 Aug 2015 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
I am quite an adventurous cooker!!! I did tweak the recipes due to not having the ingredients but I used this... 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tbsp. garlic puree 500g tomato passata dash of salt and pepper (more salt than pepper but NOT TOO much) As much pasta as there was left in the bag. - 02 Mar 2015 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
