Re: Vodka Sauce
2 tbs olive oil
2 cloves of garlic sliced
1/4 lb prosciutto from the deli (ask them to make it slightly thick when they slice it) chopped into chunks
2 oz. vodka
1 can whole plum tomatoes (crush them by hand)
Salt & Pepper to taste
2 cups Heavy Cream
1/2 cup grated parmesean cheese
On medium heat, Sautee garlic in olive oil. Add the prosciutto and sautee for a few minutes until slightly crispy but not burnt.
Take pan off burner and add the vodka, let it sit for 2-minutes (until the alcohol burns up).
Put back on medium-high heat, and add crushed tomatoes with the extra sauce from the can.
Season with Salt & Pepper
Add Heavy Cream
Bring to a Boil, and lower heat to a simmer.
Simmer for 1/2 hour.
When you take it off the heat, add 1/2 cup to 1 cup grated parmegean cheese (I usually use locatelli chese though) and stir.
Serve over rigatoni or penne.

excellent and E*A*S*Y 
eta: you can use pancetta instead of prosciutto if you want.
also, I am a garlic lover, so I use more than 2 cloves. I use about 4, but that's mine & DH's taste.

1 small red onion, chopped small
1lb. penne or rigatoni
Melt butter in a large skillet. When butter is hot add pancetta or Prociutto, garlic and onion.
Saute over medium heat. Add vodka and stir until vodka is reduced by evaporation. Add tomato sauce and stir heavy cream and season with salt and black pepper.
Simmer, uncovered for approximately 8-10 minutes.
