Daft Punk pasta sauce

Back in 2005, I decided to make the pasta sauce from the video for Daft Punk's "Revolution 909". It was pretty good. Here's the original blog post from 2005: so I got bored at work today and decided to post the recipe for pasta sauce in the Daft Punk video "Revolution 909", which I got watched at this site. I had to translate it from French, thanks to what I remember from middle school (which is not much), Google, and a couple random French cooking websites. So here it is.

Daft Punk pasta sauce

You need:

  • about 8 tomatoes
  • A whole onion
  • Some basil leaves
  • 2 or 3 small dried red peppers (not really sure what they are)
  • A little bit of salt
  • Possibly a dog mask or a bunch of mummies and guys in skeleton costumes doing the robot

Directions (according to the video)

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil.
  2. Put tomatoes in boiling water for a few seconds.
  3. Take tomatoes out, peel them and chop them. Put them in a bowl and set aside.
  4. Chop up a whole onion.
  5. Heat a few tablespoons of olive oil over low flame. Add a couple dried small red peppers.
  6. Add the whole chopped onion and some salt.
  7. Add the tomatoes and a couple basil leaves.
  8. Cook slowly over a low fire for an hour, stirring often.
  9. Put it on spaghetti and enjoy. But don't spill it on your shirt or some ravers might notice it and distract you and run away. At least that's what happened in the video.
