Guest Recipe: Renée's Now Famous "Some-Kinda-Pasta"

The following is a guest recipe from PTIYM's foreign corespondent Renée Stairs, an RTF undergrad studying abroad in Paris, France. Check out her blog at http://franglaisparis.blogspot.com/.

So in my attempt to spend less than 60 euro before the end of the month, I made some pasta from pretty much everything I could find in my kitchen. Ommitting the oranges. It goes a little something like this...

Some-Kinda-Pasta

Ingredients

Macaroni pasta
Water
Olive oil
One garlic clove
Dried basil
Crème fraîche
Tomato paste
Water
Salt
Pepper or mystery polish spice from kitchen
A teeny tiny bit of sugar

Directions
Start noodles first and cook for specified amount of time.

Meanwhile, in a separate pan, heat olive oil until crackly. Add roughly chopped garlic and cook until golden brown and tasty. Add some basil flakes and fry them a little bit. Add some crème fraîche, a bit of tomato paste, just so the sauce looks pink. Add a little water to thin the sauce out then season to taste with salt, pepper/mystery polish spice, a tiny pinch of sugar and some more basil flakes. Pour that shit on the drained pasta and enjoy! Serve with off brand cola out of champagne flutes for extra class.
