This is a little number I knocked up the night before last. Very simple.
Ingredients:
Penne pasta (about 150-200g)
1 large sweet red pepper, sliced into thin strips
Olive oil
I onion, finely chopped
1 clove of garlic, finely chopped/crushed
200g chopped tomatoes (half anormal 400g tin)
Half a glass of red wine
Generous teaspoon of basil
Generous teaspoon of oregano (my favourite herb!)
2 crushed dry bird eye chillies, or two fresh finely chopped bird eye chillies (optional)
Salt and Pepper to taste
How to:
1. Warm up the oil on a medium heat and fry the chopped onion for about 5 minutes until a litlle translucent.
2. Add the garlic and fry for another minute.
3. Add the sliced red pepper and fry for another five minutes or so.
4. Put the penne in a large pan of boiling water and simmer in the background.
5. Add the tomatos, red wine, oergano, basil, and chillies (if adding) and stir well. Bring up to the boil - aim is to reduce the liquid to make a nice thcker sauce.
6. Once the penne has cooked, add to the sauce, stir in well and serve!
