Vegetarian Dish.
Last night I cooked a vegetarian dish, tagliatelle rather than spaghetti. Quick and easy.
1. Into a saucepan put a little olive oil and warm slowly.
2. Add: Mini tomatoes red and yellow, peppers roughly chopped red and orange, olives both green and black, capers, spring onion chopped, a few frozen peas, a few Broad beans, a chilli. Cook off on med low heat.
3. Add tomatoes ground to a pulp in a food processor plus some water to create a thin sauce. (Alternative passata or tomato paste plus extra water)
4. Cook off on low heat with salt and black pepper to taste. When sauce has thickened, turn off heat and give it 30 mins to rest and mature a little.
5. In that rest period, drink ice cold Peroni.
6. Cook tagliatelle as per packet instructions.Drain and add to sauce. Mix well and turn out into serving dish, scattering basil leaves on top.
7. Have grated cheese on the side.
Very colourful, tasty, easy.
