Penne A La Vodka

Ingredients:
1 lb Penne pasta noodles
1/2 onion chopped
1 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
3/4 can (28 oz) tomato sauce
2 italian sausage
4-6 tablespoons cream
2 tablespoons vodka


Put some water aside to boil the pasta noodles.  Once boiling add the noodles cook. Remove from the heat and leave to the side in a strainer.


Heat up some olive oil in a pan and add in the onions, italian sausage, garlic and chili flakes together. i didn't have sausage this day so you won't see it in the pictures, but that's what i usually add in there as well.

 

Next mix in the tomato sauce and mushrooms to the mix... 
 

Mix everything together for about 2 minutes on low heat. Then add in 2 tables spoon of cream to the mix for around 3 minutes. Add in 2 tablespoons of vodka and stir around.

 

Cook for about 2 minutes stirring occasionally.  Add in 2 more table spoons of cream and mix on low heat for 3 more minutes;



Now taste the sauce to see how you think about it. Some people like it a bit sweeter, so you can add 2 more table spoons of cream if you like.
Add in the noodles to this sauce mix and blend together. Taste the sauce and adjust as you want (more pepper for spice, cream for sugar etc).


And then enjoy your pasta!
