This sauce is about as basic and delicious as it gets. Onions and garlic start it off (duh!), while plump tomatoes give it some tang. The heavy cream is an obvious addition, creating a velvety finish, but it’s the vodka that really makes this dish sing. I like to add red pepper flakes to mine, also, to give it some heat.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large pan over medium heat, and add the onions and garlic. Cook until translucent. Add the red pepper flakes and dried oregano and cook for 1 minute more.
Meanwhile, add tomatoes to the food processor and puree until the sauce is a smooth consistency. Add to the pan and heat through.
Most people like to add the vodka before the tomatoes, but I think the flavor is stronger if you add it after. So, add your vodka and stir to combine. Once combined, add your cream and stir to combine.
Season with salt and pepper, reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer for 15 minutes.
Cook your pasta (according to package instructions) at this point. Then drain it and add cooked pasta to the sauce and toss to combine. Serve with freshly grated parmesan cheese.
