    Expert tips

    These tips are to help you master this recipe from the 1st time you make it:

    • cook the spaghetti till it is al dente! (to add a little more bite to the dish)
    • a pesto based sauce can be substituted for the tomato pasta sauce
    • use Italian Sausage for a traditional Italian Sausage Spaghetti
    • freeze the cooked dish for easy meals during the week

    Substitute the Rocket and Cashew Pesto or Basil and Cashew Pesto for the tomato pasta sauce if you want a pesto pasta flavor to the dish. 

    This spaghetti will seem a little lighter in the belly than a full on spag bowl which has a higher meat to pasta ratio.

    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).
