This sauce is quite hot so we recommend you test it before serving it to your children.
400g tortellini
1 tsp olive oil
6 large tomatoes, chopped
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 tsp Tabasco sauce
1 tsp basil leaves
100g grated cheese to garnish
Cook the pasta according to packet instructions. While the pasta is cooking you can make the sauce.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste. Allow to simmer gently for about 4 minutes before adding the Tabasco sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
To get a smooth consistency, you can spoon the tomatoes into a bowl and give it a quick going over with a hand held blender.
Toss the sauce and the pasta together.
Sprinkle the cheese on top and garnish with the basil before serving.
