Cook your pasta in boiling salted water until al dente.

Heat a large saucepan on low -medium heat with olive oil. Add the onions and soften for 10 minutes, add the garlic and cook for a further 2-3 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook until the colour darkens a little (2-3 minutes).

Pour in the vodka and cream and allow to bubble away until reduced. Stir in the chilli flakes.

Drain your pasta, keeping hold of a cup of the pasta water.

Add the pasta to the sauce with butter and parmesan. Gently loosen to your desired thickness with the pasta water.

Season to taste and serve.
