Notes

• Note 1 You can use your favorite pasta, eg penne, curly, fettuccine, linguine etc.
• Note 2 The basil leaves really make this dish.I encourage you to try them.  If you don't want the basil flavour in the pasta, you can use spinach or rocket leaves instead.  
• Note 3 You can also use diced tomatoes if you like. Or whole peeled tomatoes and chop them into smaller pieces with kitchen scissors. 
• Note 4 I use this ingredient in a number of pasta dishes. It has a great rich tomato flavour plus is a good size for sauces. You can use passata as a substitute, the only down size being that it will come in a larger 700 gram bottle and you will have leftovers or an extra saucy pasta if you choose to use more (as to not waste the rest of the bottle).
