JEANNE JONE'S _COOK IT LIGHT

In a medium to large pot, over medium heat, add cumin and toast until you can smell the seasoning (if using seeds, until golden brown). Add 3 cups of the tomatoe puree, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, chili and pepper flakes, and oregano. Mix well, bring to a simmer.

Reduce to a low heat, cook covered for 25 minutes. Add the remaining ingreadients, excluding the cheese and pasta. Mix well, cook for 10 minutes, add your cooked pasta. Or ... place 1 cup of the cooked pasta on a plate and top each serving with the sauce. Sprinkle each plate with cheese, and serve. Cilantro spriggs look great as garnish! From: larcherr@...
