Roasted red pepper pasta recipe with step by step photos. I recently tasted a perfectly made roasted red pepper pasta recipe in a get together at a friend’s place, it was so delicious that I wanted to recreate at home immediately. the pasta was so delicious with a nutty flavor, the sauce was made of roasted bell pepper along with some walnuts and almonds, told my friend.

I made the same roasted red pepper pasta next week at home, I did not get the exact recipe from my friend, so I kind of made this pasta from my memory. I roasted the bell pepper in oven with a generous brushing of olive oil. You could even roast the bell pepper in direct flame as I did in this roasted bell pepper soup. I have kept the flavors pretty clean and simple, just garlic and some mixed herbs are added in this roasted red pepper pasta recipe apart from red pepper puree.

To make roasted red pepper pasta recipe, I have used penne pasta, you can use any pasta you have in hand. To get a very rich and flavorful pasta that does not dry after some time, use pasta cooked stock (water) for diluting the sauce. I have added some grated cheese for garnishing, it is purely optional and vegans can just leave out the cheese.
