Pasta al Pomodoro (Badass asian remix)

Parents are gone, lets make some food.

I seriously just bs-ed this in about 12 minutes. Haters gonna hate.

:::Ingredients:::
I package (1 lb.) of angel hair (vermicelli) pasta
2 cans of peeled tomato
I roma tomato, finely chopped
4 small cloves of garlic, crushed then minced
1 half a large onion, or 1 small one, finely chopped
olive oil
soy sauce (I'll explain this later)
4 to 5 leaves of basil, torn into small pieces
parmesan cheese (no green can or I will cut you)
garlic salt and crushed red pepper to taste

:::Preparation:::
1. You know what to do. Boil some water, salt that ish, put your pasta in. wait to come back to boil, cook for 4 minutes.
2. Fry minced garlic in 2 tblsp. of olive oil. When golden brown, add finely chopped onion and another tblsp. of olive oil. Saute for 4 minutes while pasta cooks.
3. Add canned peeled tomato and finely chopped fresh tomato. Press with a potato masher until smooth, yet chunky.
4. Add 1 tsp. each of black pepper and garlic salt. Add soy sauce (this replaces some of the salt other chefs would use. It adds umami, I'm Asian, what more of an explanation do you need?) Around one tsp. should be good.
5. Drain pasta and mix with sauce.
6. Plate that ish, top with cheese, eat while being badass. Serve with wine and bread or something. Fxck bitches, get money, all that sort of frivolity.
