Method

1
Melt half the butter over medium heat in a deep-sided frying pan. Add onions and sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Add garlic and rosemary and sauté for a few minutes without the garlic browning. Stir in tomato paste and nduja and let it cook for a few minutes, stirring continuously until well combined.
2
Add canned tomatoes and season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
3
Add the rest of the butter and stir until the butter has evaporated. The sauce should be thick.
4
Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and boil for 8-10 minutes or until just al dente. Drain, reserving some of the pasta water.
5
Add pasta and a little pasta water to the sauce. If you need to loosen the sauce, add more pasta water.
6
Serve right away with Parmesan and fresh basil on top.
