1

Start by boiling salted water in a large pot. Once it reaches a boil, add the pasta and cook according to package instructions, usually for about 8-10 minutes until al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

2

While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

3

Pour in the tomato sauce and stir well to combine with the garlic. Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes.

4

Reduce the heat to low and carefully stir in the heavy cream, mixing until the sauce turns a beautiful pink color. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.

5

Once the pasta is done cooking, reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then drain the pasta.

6

Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss it in the pink sauce. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add some reserved pasta water until you reach the desired consistency.

7

Stir in the grated parmesan cheese, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

8

Garnish the Pasta alla Rosa with fresh basil, then serve hot immediately.
