Jalapeno and olive pasta sauce

This is my twist on the regular red sauce that I make to go with pasta. Makes it spicier and yummier.

You need:


  • Tomatoes - 4 medium (make sure they are red to give that beautiful color to the sauce)

  • Garlic - 10-12 cloves (believe me.. more garlic.. more yumminess)

  • Jalapenos - 2 ( I got it out of the can.. so I took 5 pieces)

  • Black olives (or green ones or mix both) - a handful (again out of the can here)

  • One green chilly (optional)

  • A handful of fresh coriander leaves

  • Onions - 3 medium - finely chopped

  • Olive oil - 1/2 cup (GOOD FOR HEALTH)

  • Red chilly powder - 1/2 tsp

  • Chilly flakes - 2 tsp

  • Oregano - 2 tsp

  • Salt to taste

How to:



  • Put green chilly, tomatoes, and garlic in a mixer and grind to a paste

  • In this put in the olives, jalapenos and fresh coriander and just give one turn in the mixer. The paste should be coarse and grainy

  • Heat the oil in a pan and saute the chopped onions till they are slightly golden

  • Add the tomato paste to it, cover and cook for 5 minutes

  • Add the chilly powder, chilly flakes, oregano and salt to it and cook till the oil leaves sides.

Toss in any pasta and serve hot :)
