Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

7 ounces penne

salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 onion -- peeled and chopped

1 red pepper -- cored and chopped

1 garlic clove -- crushed

1 dried chilli -- crumbled

or chilli powder to taste

15 ounces canned chopped tomatoes in juice

1 tablespoon drained capers

1 tablespoon chopped sun-dried tomatoes

2 tablespoons black olives -- stoned

grated fresh Parmesan (optional) -- or flaked

 

 

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil for the pasta.

 

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan and add the onion and red pepper. Stir, then

cover and cook gently for 7 minutes until the vegetables soften. Add the garlic,

crumbled chilli or chilli powder, tomatoes, capers, sun-dried tomatoes and

olives. Cook, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the

sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

 

About 10 minutes before the sauce is ready, put the pasta into the boiling

water, along with a tablespoonful of salt. Cook until the pasta is al dente.

Drain the pasta and return it to the still-warm saucepan. Either mix in the

tomato sauce or toss the pasta in a tablespoon of olive oil, serve it on warmed

plates and pour the sauce on top. Serve the parmesan separately if using.

 

This will provide 8 portions of fruit and veg. It is recommended that you eat 5

portions of fruit and veg daily to help maintain a healthy diet.
