Penne with Tomato and Basil

This is a simple pasta dish that you can have on the table in around ten minutes and the good news is that it tastes delicious.

What you will need:

100g gluten free penne pasta (but any will do) per person
100g ripe tomatoes per person, chopped
5 - 6 basil leaves per person, torn
1 clove garlic per 1 to 2 people
2 tbs olive oil per person
1/4 cup frozen peas

What you need to do:

1.  Put the pasta on to boil.
2.  Meanwhile, make the sauce.  Crush or slice the garlic and cook in heated olive oil over very low heat until soft.
3.  Add the tomatoes and basil and continue to cook for a few more minutes.
4.  Just before the pasta is ready throw the frozen peas into the boiling water and cook another minute or so.
5.  Drain the pasta and peas and add to the sauce.
6.  Mix well and serve with lots of freshly ground black pepper, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and additional basil if you have any left.
