Pasta alla vodka is one of the most delicious and indulgent dishes in Italian cuisine. It's a perfect blend of creamy tomato sauce, hearty pasta, and a kick of vodka that elevates the flavors to a whole new level.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, stirring occasionally. Cook for 2 minutes.
Sprinkle with salt, then mix in tomato paste. Pour in vodka and stir well. Allow it to cook for 3 minutes.
Stir in heavy cream and continue cooking for another 5 minutes.
Cook pasta according to the package instructions, ensuring it remains al dente.
Mix the cooked pasta into the sauce, tossing it to coat thoroughly. If needed, add a splash of hot water to reach the desired consistency. Remove the skillet from heat.
Serve in a bowl topped with parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, if you like.
