Ingredients Needed

All you need to make this creamy sauce pasta :

ingredients for roasted red pepper pasta

Milk – add plant based milk like cashew or almond milk to make it vegan.  And skip Parmesan shavings.

Spice – roasted red bell pepper sauce has distinctive sweetness to it. If you want to balance the sweet and add kick to it, add red chili flakes or cayenne pepper powder to the sauce.

How To Make Roasted Red Pepper Pasta From Scratch

How To Roast Peppers For The Sauce:

For this pepper sauce, I prefer red bell peppers. Gives a distinctive orangish colored sauce. Yellow or green bell peppers will change the color of the sauce.

To roast peppers for the sauce, spray (rub) olive oil to red bell peppers, shallots or onions, and garlic and season with salt and ground black pepper. Broil or roast in oven at 400 F until black spots are seen on bell peppers. It might take about 20 minutes. Keep an eye on onions and garlic. If you see onions and garlic turning black, remove them and let bell peppers alone roast well.

Remove from oven, let it rest for couple of minutes until it’s cool enough to handle peppers. Peel skin off peppers, de-seed them.

Blend roasted and peeled peppers with roasted onions, roasted garlic until smooth. You can add few tablespoon of tomato paste to the sauce for extra flavors.

That’s it, roasted red pepper sauce ready!

Tossing Pasta in Sauce:

You can simply toss cooked pasta in the sauce. I personally prefer to heat up the sauce and adjust the seasoning before in toss in the pasta. Pasta in creamy red pepper sauce is best when served HOT!

Heat olive oil. Add the sauce and let it turn hot.

Then season with salt and ground pepper.

Add milk of your choice and mix it all together.

Once creamy sauce turns hot, turn off flame. Add in any cooked pasta of your choice. Toss well to coat evenly.

Serve hot garnished with chopped parsley, couple of Parmesan shavings before you serve.
