Bell pepper sauce (for pasta)

I suppose you must have noticed that lately it has given me by the sauces true?. But it is something that I did not pay much attention to before and, now that I decided to find out more about them, I am discovering a whole new world full of exquisite aromas and flavors. Best of all, they can be done with simple ingredients, cheap, like this one that I bring you today. Ideal for the end of the month, when you only have 3 peppers 1 an onion left in the fridge.

Degree of difficulty: Easy

Preparation time: 10 minutes

Ingredients for people 4 (The amounts may vary depending on whether you want to leave more sauce or less):

• 3 peppers

• 1 onion

• 3 teeth of Garlic it

• Olive oil

• Concentrated tomato (Optional)

• Sal Island

• Pepper

Preparation:

In a frying pan, heat the olive oil and simmer the onion cut in julienne and the crushed garlic. Then add the peppers cut into strips.

Add water, salt, pepper and wait for it to boil. Then pass everything through the blender and that's it.

If you wish, you can add a little concentrated tomato, which will give the sauce more color and consistency.

And you already have it ready!

When serving ...

In my case I simply served the pasta with a little sauce, but if you want to go further you can gratin it with some cheese before serving.

Recipe suggestions:

• I have put that it is for pasta because it was made by a relative who has also lived in Italy for many years, so the same is even a typical recipe, I do not know, but you can still use it with a fish for example.

• If you like spicy, you can add a little paprika (strong paprika).

The best…

As you can see, few ingredients are needed, they are easy to find and we also usually have them in the fridge laughing at the end of the month, so we can give them some use and, incidentally, vary the pasta a bit, which we normally serve. with tomato.
