1 Tbsp (15 mL) olive oil, divided over several steps
2 red bell peppers, quartered (or swap for roasted red bell pepper) 1 orange bell pepper, quartered (or swap for a red bell pepper)
¼ tsp salt, divided over several steps
⅛ tsp ground black pepper, divided over several steps
4 cloves garlic
minced 1 zucchini, thinly sliced (of andere groente)
400 g) dry spaghetti noodles
¼ cup (28 g) sun-dried tomato in oil
¼ cup (29 g) roasted walnuts
1½ cups (201 g) frozen green peas
Garnish
fresh basil
fresh parsley
roasted walnuts
Add half the oil to a large pan on high heat. (of roosteren in de oven) When hot, add the bell peppers, and sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper overtop.
Cook until the skin begins to blister, and then flip to cook on the other side. To speed up this recipe, you could alternatively skip this step and use roasted bell pepper from a jar.
When the bell peppers are cooked through and blistered on both sides, push them to the side of the pan, add a small bit more oil, and cook the garlic until lightly golden, about 2 - 3 minutes. Transfer both the bell pepper and garlic to a food processor or blender.
Return the same pan to the heat, and add more oil. When hot, cook the zucchini. Sprinkle over some salt and pepper, and try not to disturb the zucchini as it cooks, and give a flip only when golden.
To a large pot of salted boiling water, add the pasta.
Returning to the food processor, add in the sun-dried tomato, and walnuts. Blend until smooth, but some small chunks can remain, if desired.
In the last two minutes of the pasta cooking, add the peas to the cooking water. When the pasta is al dente, drain. Then return the drained pasta to the pot.
Add the cooked zucchini and blended red bell pepper mixture to the pot. Toss everything to coat.
