The savouryrich flavour of romesco sauce works perfectly with pasta and some salty Kalamata olives. A great and simple pasta dish to add to your repertoire.

Ingredients

  • 4 red bell peppers
  • garlic
  • 1 lemon
  • flaked almonds
  • sherry vinegar
  • tomato puree
  • 500 dried pappardelle
  • Kalamata olives
  • 1 bunch of fresh basil
  • olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper

Method

Preheat your oven to 180°C/360°F/gas mark 4.

Add the red peppers and 3 garlic cloves (skin on) to a roasting tray with a lemon cut in half.

Roast for 45 minutes.

Once the peppers are soft, add them to a blender. Squeeze in the roasted garlic and roast

lemon juice. Add 2 tablespoons of flaked almonds, 2 tablespoons of sherry vinegar, a tablespoon of olive oil.

Blitz until smooth.

Get the pasta on.

Once the pasta is al dente, drain (save some pasta water in a cup). Add back to the pan with your Romesco sauce, a large handful of chopped Kalamata olives and a handful or torn basil and mix!

Serve and Enjoy!
