Ingredients | Creamy Pasta Sauce Without Cream Uk

1 (16 ounce) box penne pasta

¼ cup olive oil, divided

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 ripe tomatoes, chopped

1 ¾ cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided

1 cup heavy whipping cream

7 ounces tomato paste

½ cup sour cream

1 ripe tomato, sliced

1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, or to taste

salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

9 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a large baking dish.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Combine chopped tomatoes, 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese, heavy cream, tomato paste, sour cream, remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, and cooked garlic in a large bowl and season with Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix in penne pasta and spread into the prepared baking dish. Cover with sliced tomatoes and sprinkle with remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 30 minutes.

You can also use a handful of fresh herbs like basil and oregano instead of the Italian seasoning.

If you want to save on calories you can substitute part of the cream with milk, but with cream it is to die for!
