Creamy Tomato Basil Pasta

Method

1. Cook the pasta: Boil the pasta in salted water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water.

2. Make the sauce: In a skillet over medium heat, combine the marinara sauce and heavy cream. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

3. Combine the pasta: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.

4. Finish with basil: Sprinkle the fresh basil over the pasta and stir gently.

5. Serve: Transfer to bowls and garnish with extra Parmesan and basil leaves.
