Pasta with tomato sauce


Fans of Skopelos recipes admire the food choices the island has to offer since local chefs create Mediterranean dishes by using exquisite local ingredients. Pasta with tomato sauce is a traditional Italian recipe and one of the most popular meal choices in the western world.

In Skopelos, the chefs select only the freshest tomatoes, the finest Greek extra virgin olive oil and fresh garlic to present a meal that is as nutritious and delicious as possible. So, it does not take us by surprise that when people taste it once, they want to taste it again and again.

Take a look on how we prepare our Pasta with tomato sauce and get ready to taste one of the most popular Skopelos recipes:

  • We put in a large sauce pan 2lts of water and then we add the pasta. We let them bowl for about 7 minutes, to get the al dente effect.
  • While the pasta is getting boiled, we prepare our sauce. In another sauce pan we heat extra virgin olive oil, adding a bit of garlic and cook it for about 8 minutes.
  • In the same sauce pan we add the fresh tomatoes and a spoonful of brown sugar, stirring often.
  • When the sauce gets a rich dark red colour, we lower the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes. Then we season with a bit of salt and pepper.
  • Now, the cooked pasta is added to the sauce pan.
  • After the ingredients have mixed well together, we place them to a dish and present them while hot.
