My mom told me to make a pasta sauce with some fresh basil she had on hand. I searched everywhere for something simple with simple ingredients and couldn't find anything so I created this. I used it with spaghetti but works will with any pasta. I like to mix the milk with whipped.

Instructions to make Basil Pasta with Handmade Basil Sauce:
  1. Add all of the ingredients for the basil sauce to a food processor and mix until everything is evenly blended to make the basil sauce.
  2. Add some salt (not listed) to boiling water and boil the pasta for 1 minute less than directed on the package. Reserve about 100 ml of the pasta water.
  3. Cut the onion into 3 mm thick slices. This time I used block bacon cut into sticks, but sliced bacon is also OK!
  4. Take a little of the olive oil from the top of the basil sauce, add to a frying pan, and turn on the heat. Cook the bacon. Add chili pepper if you like.
  5. Once the bacon is covered with oil, add the onions and lightly cook on high heat.
  6. Add the basil sauce and mix everything together.
  7. Add the boiled pasta and the reserved 100 ml of pasta water and cook. It's done when everything is evenly mixed with the basil sauce.
  8. I don't season it any more than this, but you can add salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving plate, and if you have any fresh basil leaves, garnish to make it more pretty.

I made a little more sauce, added some green beans and tomatoes (because my garden is going crazy with them right now) - my husband declared it perfect. I used the full sauce ingredients and that was perfect with the amount of pasta, etc. Mushrooms would have been a good addition but it was great. I have to admit: I have an entire shelf in my pantry devoted to my favorite jarred tomato sauce. I'm usually in a hurry when I make pasta for dinner — and who has time to simmer a sauce on the stove.
