This creamy vodka sauce comes together in one skillet, built from softened onion, garlic, and red pepper flakes bloomed until fragrant, then deepened with tomato paste cooked to a rich brick-red before a splash of vodka gets scraped into the mix. Crushed tomatoes simmer down into a thick, glossy base, and full-fat coconut milk stirs in at the end for that signature velvety texture without a hint of heaviness. Penne gets tossed right in the sauce with a splash of starchy pasta water so every piece is coated and clinging. Torn basil and a scatter of nutritional yeast finish each bowl with a fresh, savory lift. It's a cozy, restaurant-style pasta night that comes together with pantry staples and one pan to clean. This version fits neatly into a vegetarian spread, no complicated swaps required at the table.
