Super Simple Peppadew Pasta - A New Family Fave
- These ingredients easily feed the four of us (my husband and the two kids):
- 250g of pasta (whatever kind you like, I usually use fusilli)
- 200g Peppadew peppers (I usually use mild, for the kids, but hot ones work just as well)
- 150g asparagus spears, chopped
- 100g sun-dried tomatoes, sliced
- 100g salami, chopped (you can leave this out for a vegetarian dish - it's just as tasty without)
- 50g black olives, pitted and halved
- 5 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 dessert spoon of lemon juice
- 1 small aubergine, thinly sliced
- A good handful of chopped fresh parsley.
- The method's easy as anything:
- 1. Cook your pasta. You don't need me to tell you how to do that, I'm sure.
- 2. Heat half the oil in a frying pan, then add the aubergines and fry until they're golden and tender.
- 3. Brush your Peppadews with the remaining oil and add to the pan. Fry them for around one or two minutes.
- 4. Mix the lemon juice and parsley all together to make a dressing and then pour it over the pasta, along with the salami, olives, asparagus, aubergines and sun-dried tomatoes.
- 5. Toss it all through and then leave it over the heat until it's all warm.
- 6. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and, if you like (as I very much do) a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
- Quick, easy and utterly yummy.
- This is just one of the ways the family and I have been enjoying Peppadews recently. They really are a revelation!
- Hope you enjoy the pasta,
