Double Bean Pasta With Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet or saucepan. Add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add the garlic, and stir together until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes with juice and a pinch of sugar. Raise the heat slightly, and cook, stirring, until the tomatoes are bubbling vigorously. Lower the heat to medium-low, and cook gently, stirring and mashing the tomatoes often with the back of your spoon until they have cooked down into a thick, fragrant sauce, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the beans and the herbs, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• When the pasta water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the pasta. Cook al dente, following the recommendations on the package but checking about a minute before the indicated time. When the pasta is just about done, check to see if the tomato sauce seems dry. If so, add up to 1/4 cup of the pasta water to the pan and stir. Drain the pasta, toss with the sauce and serve, passing the cheese for sprinkling.

Steps:

• Saute; a couple of cloves of chopped garlic in olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.
• Add 2 cups of chopped fresh or canned tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, or until saucy; add 1.5 cups canned white beans (or about 1 cup of cooked beans) and heat until bubbly.
• Add a little more minced garlic, then a pound of cooked penne pasta.
• Add fresh basil and a bit more oil and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the tomatoes, basil, garlic, salt and pepper. Serve over pasta. If desired, garnish with basil and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic in the hot oil until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir beans into the oil; season with salt. Cook and stir the beans until hot, about 5 minutes. Stir tomatoes into the beans; cook and stir until the tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes more.
• Pour broth over the beans mixture; stir. Cook the mixture at a simmer until the liquid reduced in volume by about half, about 15 minutes. Season with pepper.

Steps:

• In a medium size saucepan heat the olive oil. Saute onion until tender. Stir in tomatoes and entire can of beans. Let simmer for 10 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Mix pasta with bean mixture and salt as desired.

Steps:

• Place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain; add tomatoes and set aside. , In a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in 4 tablespoons butter until crisp-tender. Add 1 teaspoon garlic, 1 teaspoon basil, 1 teaspoon oregano and salt; cook 1 minute longer. Add to the bean mixture; toss to coat. Spoon into a greased 3-qt. baking dish., Melt the remaining butter; toss with bread crumbs, cheese and remaining garlic, basil and oregano. Sprinkle over bean mixture. , Cover and bake at 400° for 20 minutes. Uncover; bake 15 minutes longer or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Cook pasta as instructed on the packet, drain, and set aside.
• While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a saucepan on medium heat and add minced garlic. Saute until translucent, then add chopped onions and saute until soft and starting to turn brown.
• Add cooked black beans, saute for a minute, then add half of the water (1/2 cup if you're using the original measurements of this recipe) and bring to the boil. Lower heat and simmer for about 5 minutes.
• Now mush the black beans right there in the saucepan with a fork or a ricer to blend in with the water to create a thick sauce. You can leave some beans whole depending on your choice -- this is your creation.
• Once some or all the beans are mooshed to satisfaction and the concoction is nice and thick, add the tomato paste and saute for a minute to remove its rawness. Then add the chopped tomatoes, remaining water, and sugar (to reduce the acidity of the tomatoes) and mix well.
• Add salt and pepper to taste. I generally prefer to do this as you go along, adding small amounts of salt and pepper to each stage of sauteing.
• Allow the sauce to bubble nicely and simmer for about 5-10 minutes or until it is satisfactorily thick.
• Now it's time to throw in the sliced olives, swirl around, then add the fresh basil and thyme and mix gently. Let simmer for a minute, then add the cooked pasta and mix well, ensuring that all the pasta is well covered by the sauce.
• Remove the saucepan from the hob and let it sit for a minute away from the heat. Now if you're using the sour cream or Greek yogurt, this is when you would add it in and mix gently. Do not add this while the saucepan is still on the flame/burner or it might curdle. Well, even if it does, it's not going to taste bad, it's just going to look a bit odd, but will still taste just as good -- honest.
• That's it -- all done. Garnish with some fresh basil leaves if you've got some lying around and serve hot.
