Ingredients

1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
5 to 6 Roma tomatoes, chopped, (28 to ounce. can plum tomatoes)
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
salt & pepper to taste
1/4 Cup chopped fresh basil
1/2 Pound angel hair pasta, (uncooked)

Cooking Instructions

Saute the garlic in olive oil until lightly browned. Do this in a skilletlarge enough to hold the tomatoes later. Leave garlic in skillet.
Place tomatoes, salt & pepper, basil and balsamic vinegar in a non to reactivebowl and set aside for 10 minutes, stirring occassionally.
Boil water for pasta.Just before you put the pasta in the water, drain tomatoes and reserve thejuice that runs off. (I usually set my colander on a dinner plate). Put theangel hair pasta in the water to cook for the recommended amount of time.
Heat your garlic skillet and toss drained tomatoes briefly JUST to heat.They should retain their shape. The pasta should finish cooking (usually nomore than 5 minutes for angel hair) at the same time the tomatoes are ready.
Toss the pasta and tomato mixture together and serve with freshly grad parmesan cheese.
