- 29.58 ml olive oil
- 236.59 ml red onion, thinly sliced
- 9.85 ml garlic, minced
- 170.09 g genoa salami, cubed

directions
- While heating the water to cook pasta, heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
- Add onion and saute until soft and beginning to color, about 5 minutes.
- Add garlic, salami, and red pepper flakes, saute until salami caramelizes, 5-7 minutes.
- Add tomatoes, tomato paste, brown sugar and vinegar.
- Reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, 10-15 minutes.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Once the water is boiling for pasta, cook pasta to al dente.
- Drain pasta, reserving 1/4 cup liquid to thin the sauce, if necessary.
- Transfer sauce to a larger shallow bowl.
- Add the drained pasta, torn basil, and Parmesan to the sauce (tearing the basil won't discolor it like cutting does); toss to coat.
- Serve pasta immediately.

This sauce was a BIG hit, I made it on a whim for my hubby and a few friends who came over. Everyone Loved it :)! I modified it a bit. used dry basil, cause I didn't have fresh, substituted Italian sausage for the salami, and made meatballs to go with it(hubby likes lots of meat with his pasta). I also added a tsb or so of white wine & Lime juice. Will definitely be making this one again,
