Tyler'S Mom'S Vodka Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    12 plum tomatoes
    1 medium onion
    2 -3 garlic cloves (or I like to use jarred garlic in oil about 2 tablespoons)
    2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
    1/4 - 1/2 cup vodka
    1 cup heavy cream
    1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped (approximate, to taste)
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    salt and pepper
    grated pecorino romano cheese or parmesan cheese, to taste
Preparation
    Chop onions and saute in olive oil.
    Mince garlic and add to onions in oil.
    Saute until onions are clear in color.
    Chop plum tomatoes and add to onions and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
    Let simmer several minutes until tomatoes start to soften and let off juice.
    Add vodka and cook till boil then lower and simmer several minutes.
    Add canned tomato sauce (can use crushed, I prefer the plain tomato sauce).
    Cook till boil then lower and simmer a few minutes more.
    Add heavy cream and cook until desired thickness.
    Add chopped fresh basil. I use alot because I love it.
    Serve over pasta. I like angel hair or thin spaghetti but you can use any pasta.
    Top with desired amount of grated cheese and enjoy!
