Tomato cream sauce has a strong affiliation with penne pasta. It is the easiest pasta sauce you can make at home.

2. Walnut Sauce

It may not be the most popular sauce among pasta lovers,  but it does bring surprising flavours to the pasta plate. Quick and easy, the sauce is creamy and is well absorbed to offer a rich flavour in every spoonful of pasta.

Take 4-5 diced garlic cloves in a pan, add some olive oil, and heat the pan until the garlic cloves turn brown.

Next, add half cup bread crumbs and ¼ cup chopped walnuts to the mix. Saute over medium heat and keep stirring slowly. Once the bread crumbs start turning brown, add al dente pasta. You can also add chopped spinach and some grated Parmigiano cheese for seasoning.

3. Creamy Mushroom Sauce

Take some butter and oil in a frying pan. Medium heat until the butter melts. Next, add half sliced mushrooms and fry until the mushroom turns golden brown. Add garlic for an intense flavour and continue heating the mix for 30-60 seconds.

Finally, pour the cream into the pan, and for a thick sauce, you can add milk and cornflour mix too. Heat till the sauce thickens. Add lemon, salt, and pepper for seasoning.
