Chorizo pasta with vegetables
Background
This tasty chorizo pasta is a dish I cook regularly. It has plenty of vegetables which can be substituted with various others from the fridge or freezer. It's super-easy to make and the result is very tasty and filling, so it's a perfect midweek meal.
Ingredients
- 300g pasta
- 1 Tbsp oil
- 400g cooking chorizo
- 1 red onion
- 200g mixed peppers (red & green capsicums)
- 1 tin chopped tomatoes (400g)
- 1 Tbsp tomato purée
- 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
- ½ tsp unrefined sugar
- 1 tsp chopped rosemary leaves
- Pinch of dried chilli flakes (optional)
- 100g frozen green peas
Instructions
- Thinly slice the onion, then cut the peppers into thin strips. Cut the chorizo into 2-3cm thick chunks.
- Boil the pasta according to the packaging instructions, drain and keep warm under cover.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the chorizo pieces for 2-3 minutes, until they release their fat, then add the pepper and onion. Cook on low temperature for about 5 minutes.
- When the vegetables are tender, add the tomato purée and chopped tomatoes, chilli flakes, vinegar, sugar and rosemary, then bring to the boil. Cook for 10 minutes then add the peas and cook for another 5 minutes.
- When the sauce is thick and smooth, toss the stew with the pasta. Serve hot.
