Method
Fresh Basil or dried oregano or any fragrant herb marjoram etc
Salt & Black Pepper to taste.
Put a large saucepan 3/4 filled with lightly salted water on to boil, on the back burner gas or electric.
Put a large frying pan on the burner on a medium heat and throw in 3 table spoons of extra virgin olive oil.
Chop 3 cloves of garlic and throw them in the oil.(adjust garlic to taste)
Chop up 3 chillies and throw them in the frying pan too (adjust chillies to taste)
Chop the ripe (the riper the better and cheaper) Italian plum tomatoes and when the garlic has softened and become translucent add the tomatoes.
Cook sauce on a simmering heat until the pasta is cooked.
When the water boils throw in the pasta. Fresh pasta or 5 minute fast cooking pasta.
When the pasta is cooked, drain and return to large saucepan. Pour in a good glob of olive oil and stir the pasta to coat it fully with the oil.
Finally throw in some fresh chopped basil or oregano into the tomato sauce and cook for 20 seconds then pour the whole thing on top of the pasta and stir it around so it is all coated.
Grate some Parmesan cheese and serve immediately. Start to finish 10 minutes. Try It and see. I tastes divine and fills a hungry hoards bellies.
The question 'I don't know what to eat. what do you fancy' Solved?
Quick meals in 10 minutes. The pasta fasta and how I learned to cook it from Sheridan.
Large Pot Of Boiling Water
Water
Large Pan Of Water Brought To The Boil.
What can we say about water. Well without it we would die in about 3 days. We can survive without food for weeks even months but water is essential for life.
Ripe Plum Tomatoes
Tomatoes
Ripe Tomatoes Taste Great and are very good for you too. Recent research has found that eating tomatoes can actively decrease conditions such as cancer, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease.

This is just the start of the good news about this recipe. Every component has health benefits. even the olive oil.
Garlic
Garlic
Garlic has many health benefits.
It has both antioxidant properties and is a natural anti-biotic. It is also believed to have a beneficial effect on blood pressure and cholesterol.
It tastes good but can lead to smelly breath. So make sure you all eat together, otherwise you may be a little wiffy alone.
Hot Chilly
Chillies Are Good For You
Chillies are an extremely healthy food. They contain 5 times as much Vitamin C as an orange.
Chillies contain a chemical called capsaisin which triggers the release of endorphins in the brain and makes us feel good.
Chillies also contains anti-oxidants that attack free radicals (cancer causing) and destroy them. Chillies are very good for you.

@mljdgulley354 green salad sounds like a plan and definitelt garlic bread.
Thanks all for your comments
Great recipe. Add a green salad and garlic bread both of which is quick and yumyum
Oh I love pasta and especially if its fasta as well, will try. Thanks for sharing Yum.
I love pasta sauce. Bookmarking! Very useful recipe.

Anything that saves money and time, and tastes this good has got to be worth trying. Pasta only fasta lol

Nice to know that people will give this dish a try. It is well worth ten minutes to produce such an excellent pasta Sauce.
Hi learner365,
Glad you liked it. So simple too. Mange'
SO good!! I love to cook! Lately, I've been getting really into making pastas and casseroles. Love to hear how other people and hubbers cook! Thank you!
I love food and I love pasta. But most of all, I love quick recipes when there are hungry mouths wondering what you are going to whip up on the fly. Thanks for sharing this quick and easy recipe.
Wow this is so nice and simple. Even just reading the recipe has made me hungry :D so i think better be trying it very soon. I am a chilli fan so i love it even more...:)
Voted up and thank you for sharing such an easy to make Pasta Sauce!!
Hi Kristine,
It solves that everyday question. What are we going to have for dinner? glad you liked it.
This sounds wonderful! Can't wait to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks missolive, it is so simple, quick and delicious. A bit like me lol
Hey! This sounds really light and tasty. I'm adding this to my recipes bookmark. SHARING too! :)
Hi jenubouka,
I couldn't agree more. Even if we live in an apartment we could grow some tomatoes and chillies indoors. Home grown is always better in my experience.
Hello Au fait,
After I wrote this hub. I went straight into the kitchen and made it ha ha and it was great.
Thanks breakfastpop,
Fresh food is the best, your right.
Hi Brett,
Glad you like the recipe. I am a quick cook artiste lol
Thanks for the share. BTW what a brilliant idea. Well done.
Hi Natalie and Peter,
Have a great meal and think of us in grey Britain lol
Hi My Minds Eye53,
It is funny how our tastes change over time. I never ate mushrooms until I was in my 20's?
Garlic I love but it has it's drawbacks romantically lol unless you both eat it.
Hi workwithnature
You are right. Nothing tastes as good as fresh food from our own gardens.Fresh tomatoes and chillies yum!
I love growing my own stuff when I get the chance.
The best sauces are made with fresh ingredients with out much fuss like this awesome pasta sauce. If you have garden ripe tomatoes and fresh garlic and basil this sauce will be a staple this summer. Heck one should plant around these ingredients they are that great.
This recipe has my mouth watering already! I might skip the chilies, but otherwise it looks delicious. Sauce from fresh tomatoes and herbs is the best!
Voting you UP, and useful. Too bad they don't have a scrumpdillyicious option!
I love a quick and easy homemade pasta sauce. It beats the jars by a mile.
Voted up, useful and awesome. I love pasta and simple dishes are the best! (I'm a lazy cook ha ha)
Thanks for SHARING.
Ten minute pasta for me and Peps tonight!
I LOVE PASTA!
I would not make a very good Italian, I cannot stand to eat or even smell garlic. I can take it in very small doses, but over all, I avoid it.
But otherwise it sound yummy.
Yummy, There is always more to learn. Hey thanks :)That reminds me, there is nothing like going out to your garden, to pick some nice veggies. This seems to make any dish extraordinary :)
@truthfornow My name is Michael. I am a chilli addict.lol
@Kris Heeter There are some very mild chillies out there. Just remove the seeds. Many of them have no heat at all. If they do not make me cry I don't want them ha ha.
@prasetio30 We have been talking about it all day and finally actually went and cooked it. It was fantastic. Why not surprise you mum and cook it for her. It is so easy. Let me know if you can do it!
Hi PWalker281,
you can use canned,tinned or any tomatoes as long as they are ripe. How about growing some Roma tomatoes in Hawaii, they would grow in no time at all.
Roma have the best flavour.
I loooooove this recipe, especially for healthy ingredients inside this pasta sauce. I believe that my mom also love this and want to make this pasta sauce for dinner. Hmm.....yummy. Rated up and delicious.
Prasetio
Sounds like an easy dish. Just wish chillies didn't make me cry - seriously! Maybe I can find some mild ones!?!
Like the idea of the added flavor of the chillies. Who knew it was so easy to make your own sauce?
Tasty AND healthy. Sounds like something even I (just call me "microwave Patty") can make. Hope I can find the right tomatoes. Something tells me the plum tomatoes are going to be expensive here in Hawaii - everything's imported. Maybe I'll substitute some locally grown tomatoes. We'll see.
Thanks for sharing Sheridan's recipe. Rated up and useful!
We have been talking about it all day. Guess what we had for supper. Sheridan's ten minute pasta lol and it was spectacular.
The depth of flavour is hard to describe in such a short time. You really must give it a whirl.
Michael -
Sounds good, and so quick. Sometimes simple really is the best.
Theresa
Hello thesingernurse,
It is one of those dishes that is so easy to do that, I may have it a couple of times a week.
Then I forget about it for a while, and when I have it again, Mama Mia!
It is just stunning and so simple. We both love to cook which is handy too lol
PS I'll dig out some more recipes for your partner to cook.
My fiancee loves using Basil in every pasta he cooks for me (yes, I don't cook! hahaha!). Thank you for sharing this. I would let him read this hub so we can try it out ourselves!
Okay, now I am hungry. Lol.
@goodlady, thanks the Italians really do know how to make simple foods fantastic.
@Ghaelach it is so quick and tasty. I knock it up whenever that question is asked 'what's for dinner'? lol
Mange' Mange' Buon appetito!
Evening Mike.
This is a beauty and we'll be try this in the coming week.
Say a big thank you to Sheridan for a wonderful recipe and naturally yourself for publishing it.
Take care and have a good evening.
LOL Ghaelach
Very good! Just like an Italian...super, simple and extremely tasty - done right...as you have so well described.
This is IT.
Buon appetito!
Thanks alocsin,
It is so quick to make. Why bother getting take out food when we can make pasta sauce like this in ten minutes.
Thanks for SHARING much appreciated.
Hi Femme,
Pancakes are on the way. Almost cooked. Should be ready for Monday lol
You want maple syrup with those ha ha
Sounds delicious -- I think I'm going to try this out. Voting this Up and Useful. And thanks for SHARING.
Michael,
This sounds delicious, and easily augmented for odd dietary needs. Plus, thanks much for writing this up in an incredibly blonde-friendly context! :)
I'm all over anything with rice-pasta, garlic, basil and olive oil.
By the way, aren't Monday's pancake nights? (wink!)
Just checking, lol!
femme
