Penne with Spicy Vodka Tomato Cream Sauce
Excellent sauce! I made mine vegetarian and it was delicious! Sauteed the garlic and red pepper flakes until the garlic was golden, added tomato paste as I don't like chunky pasta sauce, and added a little over 1/4 cup vodka. Otherwise I followed directions. The tomato paste definitely did not have enough liquid in it and the sauce was too thick, so I ended up adding an entire pint of heavy cream and nearly an entire pint of half and half. Tossed it with home made gnocchi and it had a delicious sweet taste to it. Makes a large batch so I froze half of it and have been using about 2 tablespoons of the sauce per serving of pasta. You don't need much of it at all!! Will definitely use crushed tomatoes next time instead of tomato paste.
