Directions
Peel and chop the tomatoes, being careful to conserve their juice.
Chop very fine, or, pound in a mortar, the garlic, basil, red pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Add the oil to the mortar little by little.
When you have reduced these to a fairly smooth paste (not as smooth as a pesto), pour it into the tomatoes and mix well.
Set aside for a few hours.
Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted until al dente, drain, and place in serving bowl.
Add tomatoes and mix again.
