Vodka sauce is maybe the best quick-fix pasta dish you can make. It's a real treat and it can be ready in just a few minutes.

Directions

Melt butter and when the froth dies down, saute the onions and garlic for about 2-3 minutes.

Then add the tomato puree, cream, a little red cracked pepper, salt and a little black pepper and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes or perhaps a little more.
