Linguini With Raisins, Pine Nuts And Bread Crumbs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 medium shallot, chopped (or use green onion)
    1 small onion, chopped
    10 fresh basil leaves, cut into thin strips
    1 pinch red pepper flakes
    1/2 cup white wine
    3/4 cup vegetable broth
    1/3 cup golden raisin
    8 ounces linguine
    2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted (To toast pine nuts, place in small, dry pan on medium heat and cook, shaking pan, until golden, 1 1/)
    1 tablespoon toasted whole wheat bread crumbs
    1 tablespoon parmesan cheese (or try my Vegetarian Parmazano \"cheese\"#60231)
    1 tablespoon flax seed oil or 1 tablespoon olive oil
Preparation
    Bring large pot of water to a boil.
    Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
    Add shallot and onion and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
    Reduce heat to medium.
    Add basil, pepper flakes and wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.
    Add vegetable broth and raisins and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes.
    Add 1 tablespoon salt and pasta to boiling water, stirring to prevent sticking.
    Cook pasta until just tender, about 8 minutes.
    Drain well.
    Add pine nuts, bread crumbs and Parmazan cheese to sauce; stir well.
    Season to taste with salt and pepper.
    Remove from heat.
    Stir in flaxseed or olive oil.
    Add pasta and toss to coat.
    Serve hot.
