Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and reserve a cup of pasta water.
- In a skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add tomato paste and tomato sauce to the skillet. Reduce heat and stir in heavy cream and Italian seasoning, mixing until smooth.
- Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes, adjusting heat to avoid boiling. Season with salt and pepper, and add sugar if needed to balance acidity.
- Gradually toss the drained pasta into the sauce, stirring well. Add reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
- Serve the pasta in plates and top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
