1tablespoonbutter
Instructions
bring a pot of water to boil and cook the pasta as the directions state on the package
to a large straight sided saute pan, add the tomato paste and garlic and cook for about 2 minutes over medium heat
add the tomato sauce and stir for another 2-3 minutes
add the sugar and mix in
add the heavy cream and stir together, let come just to a boil
add the salt, then take off the heat and stir in the parmesan cheese
return to the stove over low heat and add the butter, stirring until melted
once melted, turn off the heat and serve over the pasta!
Notes
I suggest using penne pasta, but you can also use any other tubular pasta. Stay away from flat pastas like farfalle or tiny pastas like elbows, because the pasta sauce will just fall off.If you want to make this sauce in advance, you can. Store just the sauce in a glass jar, then warm through when ready to serve. I don't suggest mixing the pasta and the sauce until you are ready to serve.
