Ingredients

Directions

  • Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once the oil is glistening, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • Add the tomatoes using your hands to crush them before adding to the pot, along with the salt, ½ of the basil, oregano and boullion. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the package instructions. Reserve 1 to 2 cups of the pasta cooking water, then drain.
  • Use an immersion blender to blend the sauce directly in the pot until smooth. (Alternatively, transfer the sauce to the base of a blender, let cool briefly, and blend until smooth. Then pour the sauce back into the pot.) Return the pot over low heat. Stir in the cream, parmesan, remaining basil, and 1 cup of the reserved pasta water and cook until the cheese is melted and the sauce comes together.
  • Stir pasta into sauce until coated, adding splashes of the reserved pasta cooking water as needed.
  • Divide the pasta between bowls and sprinkle with Parmesan and fresh basil before serving.
