Pasta With White Wine Tomato Sauce [Vegan]

While cheesy and ultra-tomatoey pasta sauces are delicious, sometimes it's nice to change things up. This white wine tomato Sauce is light, refreshing, and has the perfect balance of wine flavor. For a hearty and nutritious dinner, pair it with spaghetti and veggies.

INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 of 1 white onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 cups dry white wine
• 1 large hot house tomato
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons water
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 pound spaghetti
• 1 1/2 cups petite peas
• Fresh parsley, for garnish

PREPARATION

1. In a pot, sauté onion in about 2 tablespoons olive oil until translucent. Add garlic and continue to sauté another 3 minutes.
2. Add in the wine and reduce by about half. This will take about 10 minutes. In the meantime, small dice your tomato and set aside.
3. Once wine mixture has reduced by about half, add in your tomatoes and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
4. Finally, in a small bowl, mix together the corn starch with water to make a slurry. While the wine mixture is still bubbling, slowly whisk in the corn starch. The sauce will thicken instantly. You might prefer a looser sauce and in that case, use less cornstarch.
5. Use sauce over spaghetti and garnish with fresh parsley.
