Boil a pot of water and cook the pasta al dente. Reserve one cup of water and drain off the remaining water. Drizzle the pasta with olive oil. Set aside.
In a large sauté pan, add the olive oil, shallots and garlic cloves. Saute until the onions are translucent and fragrant, add the tomato paste. Stir well. Next, deglaze the pan with vodka. Be careful as it can create a flame.
Once the vodka begins to reduce, add the canned crushed tomato, water, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Stir well and simmer for a bit then remove the garlic cloves.
Next, add the heavy cream and grated parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese is fully melted. Add the cooked pasta and toss everything together.
