I'm not going to drop a recipe, just the key ingredients:

- garlic - a lot
- FRESH basil - a lot
- fresh diced tomatoes or even better, roman tomatoes that you have dropped in boiling water for 2 minutes so you can get the peel off - and the cut out the seeds
- a touch of sugar to cut the acid
- olive oil.... the dark kind
- options.... some onions if you want, capers possibly, black olives or even real olives, cooked to death carrots as a paste

With all this stuff you can create anything great. Just the garlic, basil, roman tomatoes and olive oil alone makes a great tomatoe/basil sauce you toss with angel hair pasta as a side dish (almost like the capelinni pomadoro at Macaroni grill).
