Chef Gianni Audieri's

Salsa di Pomodoro Napoli
Tomato Cream Sauce
Italian Recipe

Simple tomato cream sauce lends delectable flavor and a gorgeous pink hue to any type of pasta. This version come from chef Gianni Audieri, who likes it best over tender homemade gnocchi with a sprinkle of parmesan.

Ingredients

Serves sauce for 4

4	tablespoons	olive oil
1	medium	onion, minced
4	cloves	garlic, finely chopped
2	pounds	tomatoes, halved, seeded and chopped
1/2	teaspoon	salt
1/4	teaspoon	freshly ground black pepper
1	sprig	fresh thyme
1	sprig	fresh marjoram
2	whole	bay leaves
1/2	cup	heavy cream, room temperature

	Directions
	Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet set over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until transparent. Adjust the heat to prevent burning. Lower the heat to medium and add the tomatoes, thyme, marjoram and bay leaves and cook until most of the liquid is evaporated—approximately 20 minutes. Add the salt and pepper. Place the cream in a small bowl and “temper” it by stirring in several spoonfuls of the hot tomato sauce. Stir the tempered cream into the tomato sauce. Serve over gnocchi or pasta.

Preparation time: One hour and 20 minutes chopping and cooking time.
