  2. 2Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. 3Sauté onion 3 minutes until soft, then add garlic and cook 1 minute more.

  5. 5Pour in canned tomatoes and smoked paprika; simmer 8 minutes until thickened.

💡 Elicoidali’s ridges hold thick meat sauce well, so reduce the tomatoes until they cling rather than leaving a watery pool beneath the pasta.
