Show me your TIPS.
How do I make it?
-
Preheat oven to 400F
-
Cut the spaghetti squash (into 2 halves) along the length carefully using a chef's knife. It helps if you place a hand towel on the cutting board and then place the spaghetti squash on top of towel. This prevents it from slipping a lot
-
Take an oven safe container or even a baking sheet and place the spaghetti squash halves facing down
-
While the spaghetti squash bakes. Dice the onions, garlic and tomatoes
-
Take a pan and pour 2 tbsp of olive oil. Keep the pan on medium heat
-
Add onions and garlic, sautee on medium flame till they are golden. Also add salt and pepper
-
Now add tomatoes and sautee till they lose all of the water and become like a paste (about 15-20 mins). Stir every 5- 10 mins
-
Finally add oregano, basil, crushed red pepper and stir well. Turn the heat off
-
Let the pan and its contents cool down
-
Take the contents of the pan and put them in a blender. Blend on high for a couple of minutes till it becomes like a sauce
-
Pour the sauce back into the pan
-
Its time to check your spaghetti squash, If it is done take it out of the oven and let it cool for about 10 mins. You can test the spaghetti squash by poking it with a fork. It should pass through easily
-
Take a fork and pull out your yummy spaghetti from the squash along the length. It is very easy once you start to do it
-
Pour your spaghetti in to the pan from step 11 and mix well with the sauce. Bring the flame to a low and add 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil. Continously stir for about 5 mins
-
Serve your marinara pasta with freshly baked garlic bread (See Recipe) and Love.
