Cooking Recipe Alan Alda'S Che-Cha

Recipe Ingredients

14 Fresh Italian plum tomatoes (good-sized)
2 Handfuls fresh basil leaves chopped
1 Garlic clove; minced
1/3 lb Reduced-fat mozzarella shredded
1 tb Olive oil
10 oz Fusilli (corkscrew) pasta uncooked

Directions

[NAH Editor's note: We didn't boil or peel the tomatoes and it was
still delicious.]

DIRECTIONS: =========== Fill a pot with enough water to cover the
tomatoes. Bring to a boil and drop the tomatoes in. Remove them
after about 10 seconds, then peel and chop them.

Mix the tomatoes, basil, garlic, and cheese with the olive oil. Let
stand in a covered bowl at room temperature for at least 3 hours.
Cook the fusilli. Drain. Add the tomato sauce to the hot fusilli. Mix
well. Serve warm.
