Ingredients
- 12 oz spaghetti (we use free-from)
- 400g chopped tomatoes
- 1 medium red onion - chopped
- 4 cloves garlic
- Pinch red chilli flakes
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
- 1 litre vegetable stock
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Small bunch diced basil leaves
- Parmesan cheese
Method
- Put pasta, tomatoes, onion and garlic in a large stock pit and pour on the stock. Sprinkle on the chilli flakes and oregano and drizzle with oil.
- Cover the pot and bring to the boil before reducing to a low simmer.
- Keep covered and cook for about 10 minutes until pasta is softened through, stirring every few minutes to separate and avoid clumping.
- Once the liquid has turned to a creamy sauce season to taste with salt and pepper before adding the basil leaves.
- Stir thoroughly and serve with warm crusty bread (gluten-free if preferred) and a topping of Parmesan cheese.
