La salsa de naranja (the orange sauce) !

So busy the last week…No time for a new post!

Food recipe for today! Something new for this blog! We made this salsa last Monday. Mum had made some pasta and we undertook the making of a delicious sauce. We found the recipe somewhere on Internet but we changed it a bit. It is called “The Orange Sauce” because of its color, orange and coral. It’s really delicious and easy to make and we totally recommend it to you!! 

I N G R E D I E N T S for the O R A N G E  S A U C E:

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons butter

1 whole medium onion, chopped

1 big clove garlic, chopped

2 fresh tomatoes, grated in a mandolin

5 tablespoons tomato paste 

salt & pepper

sugar

1 cup heavy cream

cheese

fresh basil

D i R E C T I O N S:

- Pour the olive oil and the butter on a hot pan and let it melt.

- Add the chopped onion and sauté it till it turns lightly brown. Add the garlic, too.

- Then, pour in the grated tomatos and the tomato paste and stir the whole mix with a wooden spatula.

- Add sugar for the tomato, salt &pepper to taste. 

- Let it be cooked for some minutes while stirring. 

- Remove the pan from the heat and pour in the heavy cream.

- Stir well with the spatula till the sauce turns orange.

- Lastly, add some cheese like parmesan or reggato. Give it a last stir so that cheese goes everywhere.

- Pour it on pasta and add some freshly chopped basil on top.

P.S.: Don't forget the basil!! It makes a great combination with this sauce! It's so tasty and smells great!!

Bon appétit!
