Red Wine Spaghetti with Ghee, Pine Nuts and Basil

Red Wine Spaghetti with Ghee, Pine Nuts and Basil

The technique for this red wine spaghetti dish is a cross between pasta and risotto. The pasta soaks up the wine as it cooks giving it a deep red color. You'll be much more inclined to stock a few reasonable bottles of red wine so that you can easily make it again on the regular.

Find a pan wide enough to hold the uncooked pasta. Melt the Ghee (1 Tbsp) in the pan, then turn the heat to medium-high and add the Garlic (2 cloves). Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the garlic just starts to brown.

step 2

Add Light Red Wine (3 cups), Sea Salt (1 tsp), and a cup of water, and bring to a boil. Add the Gluten-Free Spaghetti (8 oz) and reduce heat to a rapid simmer.
