INGREDIENTS

14oz / 400g Penne, uncooked
4 cups / 1 litre Chicken Stock, not piping hot!
1 cup / 250ml Double/Heavy Cream, at room temp
1 cup / 125g Sun Dried Tomatoes, finely diced
1/3 cup / 3oz / 85g Tomato Paste (Tomato Puree in UK)
1/2 cup / 40g freshly grated Parmesan
1/4 cup finely diced Fresh Basil
4oz / 120g Baby Spinach
1 medium White Onion, finely diced
3 cloves of Garlic, minced/finely diced
1 tbsp Sun Dried Tomato Oil (or Olive Oil)
1/4 - 1/2 tsp Chilli Flakes, or to preference

METHOD

In a large pot over medium heat add oil and begin frying the onion. Once soft & slightly browned, add in sun dried tomatoes & garlic and fry for a further couple of minutes.

Add tomato paste and fry for 2-3mins, then pour in chicken stock. Give it a stir to blend in the tomato puree and deglaze the pan, then pour in cream (important the cream is at room temp and the stock isn't too hot or the cream may curdle).

Add a chilli flakes, salt and pepper (to taste) then add uncooked pasta. Turn heat to low medium and keep it on a gentle simmer until the pasta is about 75% cooked (stirring fairly frequently). Add in spinach & basil and continue stirring until the spinach wilts down. If the sauce soaks up before the pasta/spinach is cooked add in more hot water or stock as needed. You're looking for it to be al dente though (still a teeny bit hard).

Stir in parmesan, then serve up and enjoy!
