SPAGHETTONE WITH TOMATO CREAM AND FRIED ZUCCHINI
Ingredients:
- 150 gr cherry tomatoes
- 10 sun dried tomatoes
- Basil
- Olive oil, salt and pepper
- 1 small zucchini
- 1 teaspoon of vinegar
- 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- Sunflower oil
Start from the zucchini by cutting it in thin slices (about 3 mm). In a small bowl, mix 2 spoons of olive oil, the vinegar, 2 garlic cloves and some fresh basil. Fry the zucchini in sunflower oil and, when still hot, add them to the marination. Mix well in order to let them absorb all the flavors. After 5/10 minutes, remove them from the marination.
In the meantime, prepare the tomato cream. Blend the cherry tomatoes, the sun-dried tomatoes, 1 garlic clove and a few basil leaves together with 3 spoons of olive oil, some salt and pepper. Blend it until smooth and creamy. Add some cooking water from the pasta if the cream is too thick.
In a large pot bring some water to boil, then add the spaghetti. Cook them for 13 minutes, then drain them and add them to a clean bowl. Add the cream, some extra cooking water and finally the fried zucchini. Enjoy!
