Spicy Vodka Pasta 🌶️

Ingredients 
8 oz pasta of your choice (I used pipe rigate)
1/2 yellow onion finely diced 
4 cloves garlic minced 
2 celery stalks finely diced 
1 Tbsp crushed Calabrian chilies 
3 Tbsp Tomato paste 
1/2 C vodka 
14 oz whole peeled tomatoes 
1 basil sprig 
1/2 C heavy cream 
1/3 C Parmesan 
1 Tbsp butter 
1 ladle pasta water 
Salt and pepper to taste 

(You can add a pinch of sugar to the sauce if needed) 

In a large skillet with olive oil cook down onions, garlic, and celery until soft and season with salt and pepper (5-7 minutes). Then add Calabrian chilies and tomato paste, cook until paste turns a dull red. Then add vodka and reduce by half. Add in whole peeled tomatoes and a sprig of basil. Simmer for 15-20 minutes to allow sauce to thicken. If you want a creamy sauce blend the sauce in a blender or immersion blender. Add back to the pan once smooth. Add in cream and simmer for 2 minutes, turn heat on lowest setting add in pasta, Parmesan and pasta water. Toss and serve ☺️ 

Enjoy 💕
