Penne with tomatoe sauce

[ian Stanbury]

Tonight in the Stan and The Bury household its Penne with tomato sauce

I guess mentioning a recipe for pasta on the R4 site with tom sauce is liking writing a recipe for a cheese sarnie - it’s a patronising statement of the bleedin’ obvious.

My excuse is I wanted to show off a recent addition to my gadget collection - a food mill. Being a luddite I’m suspicious of all things electrical in the kitchen (including my oven) and prefer the reliability and control of grinding, slicing, whipping-up and mushing by hand. I also like the shiny gleaming curves of the mill, and its exuberant handle, which looks like the gear stick on my Renault 4. It’s a bugger to clean, mind.

What do you all think?

Very nice. always one of them about my mums kitchen. Very handy for tomatoe soup as the skins are kept back. Used to call it a mooley (definately the wrong spelling)

Nice! I'm a sucker for a shiny kitchen gadget, and so's the wife, so we have a fair few that don't often see the light of day anymore - never had one of those though (yet)
Mouli is the correct spelling!
Top Tomato sauce tip - try putting a head of star anise or a good dollop of ground fennel seeds in for a more 'rounded' flavour!

I think you'll find that's a "Mouli Légume" if I'm not mistaken. It's a kitchen classic!
