Are you tired of the same old boring tomato sauce? Do you want to cry yourself to sleep at night thinking about the mediocrity of your pasta dishes? Look no further than Arrabbiata, the Neapolitan sauce that'll make you question the meaning of life!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup olive oil (the tears you'll cry are not included in the ingredient list)
- 4 garlic cloves, minced (don't even get me started)
- 1 cup chopped fresh oregano (to represent the hopelessness of it all)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (the bitter taste of regret)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (the final, futile attempt at joy)
- 1 can (28 oz) crushed San Marzano tomatoes (the crushing despair of a life without Arrabbiata)
Instructions:
- Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Weep at the thought of the impending doom that is this sauce.
- Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant. Weep some more.
- Add the oregano, Parmesan, and basil. Stir until you feel a deep sense of desperation.
- Add the tomatoes and stir until the sauce is smooth. But not too smooth, because that would be cheating.
- Simmer the sauce for 10-15 minutes, or until you're crying uncontrollably.
Enjoy your Arrabbiata sauce, and the existential crisis that comes with it!
