Arrabbiata Sauce with Vegetables

Arrabbiata Sauce

1 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Big Onion, Medium size, Chopped
7 Garlic Cloves, Grated

2 Carrots, Finely Chopped
2 Celery Stalks, Finely Chopped (4 TJ Stalks or 2 WF Stalks)
2 Tsp Salt


1 and 1/2 lbs Dry Form Tomatoes, Chopped
1/4 Cup Basil Leaves, Finely Chopped
2 and 1/2 Tsp Crushed Red Chile Peppers (I take out all the seeds)


2 Zucchini, Chopped


Heat Oil in a hot pan, add Onions and saute for 4 minutes in medium flame.

Add Garlic and saute for 4 more minutes.

Add Carrots, Celery, Salt and saute for 10 more minutes.

Add Tomatoes, Basil, Red Chili Flakes and bring the sauce to boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so.

While sauce is cooking, prepare pasta

 Prepare Pasta

12 oz Gluten Free Brown Rice Pasta
1 Tbsp Salt

Boil 3 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Add Salt.

Cook pasta as per cooking direction on the cover.

Sauce Continuation

After 45 minutes, add Zucchini, mix well, close the pan and leave it for 15 more minutes. Stir often.

After the sauce is done (the zucchini should be done), remove from heat and transfer 1 Cup of the sauce to a blender. Try not to get zucchini in the sauce, you are about to blend. Blend until smooth (1 added 3/4 cup of water to blend the sauce), then add the pureed sauce back to the pan.


The Pasta

Add the Pasta to the sauce, mix well and serve.

Will i prepare it again: Definitely Yes. But this is not suitable for week night cooking, good to do it on weekend. I prepared this relaxed manner on Sunday.
