Notes
- Be careful not to overcook or undercook your pasta. Always check its firmness before draining.
- For the best flavor, stick to the recommended ingredient measurements.
- Use olive oil sparingly, as too much can make the pasta greasy and heavy on the stomach.
- Aim for a semi-thick texture in your pasta sauce for optimal results.
- You can easily adjust the spice level to suit your preference; if you’re not a fan of heat, feel free to leave out the red pepper flakes.
- To keep it healthy, skip the vodka—this recipe doesn’t call for it.
- You can add more parmesan cheese based on your taste.
- If you forget to save some pasta water and find your dish a bit dry, just add a splash of vegetable stock, water, or milk to get the sauce back to the right consistency.
