I love easy and fast food and especially also the one that at the same time is very delicious - on this page I would like to share one of these dinner dishes with you. This recipe for a One-pot tomato basil pasta is just super easy to make and it has a wonderful taste. From start to finish this dish takes about 20 minutes to make and it requires a minimum amount of work from you - what more is there to ask for?
Originally, this recipe, which I have got from another food blogger which I cannot remember the name of, uses regular spaghetti. As I have mentioned on several of my other blog posts, I love you experimenting in the kitchen and changing in recipes. In this recipe, I have changed the traditional spaghetti with some whole grain spaghetti. I personally always prefer whole grain products as they contains more fibers which makes you fill full for a longer time and it gives something that your stomach can 'work with' which is a good thing.
There is really not much to say about this dish other that it is super easy to make, it has a great taste, it contains great vitamins and dietary fiber and it only takes the same amount of time as a short TV show on Netflix.
I hope that you enjoy it as much as I do.
Ingredients
- 175 g whole grain spaghetti (6 oz)
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 handful parsley chopped
- 1 handful basil chopped
- 250 g cherry tomatoes (9 oz)
- 1 large onion
- 5 dl water (2 cups)
- 1/2 tsp ground chili/flakes
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Instructions
- In a large saucepan or frying pan; add all the ingredients and turn on the heat.
- When the water starts to boil, turn down the heat to medium setting and let it all cook for about 10-15 minutes. Stir regularly.
- When the spaghetti is cooked and the water turned into a delicious sauce, it is done. Serve right away with some grated Parmesan cheese.

In the picture of the ingredients before cooking, it looks like there might be crushed garlic between the basil and persil. Is that correct, or what is that yellowish substance?
Thx.
Kim Nielsen
Yes you are absolutely correct. I have also added garlic to this recipe. I have updated the recipe now. Thanks for letting me know. The "yellow" powder is ground chili.
