Red Pepper Fettucini
ingredients:1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup chopped Spanish onion
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 cups chopped red pepper {about 2 large}
10 oz (300g) fettuccini pasta
3/4 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk
1/2 cup raw cashews {see note below}
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
method:
heat a large frying pan over medium heat. add the oil, onion, and garlic; cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. add the bell peppers and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently until softened. remove from heat.
cook the pasta according to pasta directions. drain and set aside.
add the vegetable mixture, non-dairy milk and cashews to the blender, setting the frying pan aside. blend on high speed for 2 minutes, until smooth and creamy.
pour the sauce back into the frying pan and heat over low heat. add the salt and pepper and stir to combine. simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring constantly so the sauce doesn't stick to the bottom, until slightly thickened. taste and adjust the salt and pepper to your liking.
divide pasta among 4 bowls and pour equal amounts of sauce over each.
how to soak cashews:
pureed cashews add creaminess to recipes such as sauces. soaking cashews makes them soft and easier to blend.
- put cashews in a bowl and cover them with hot water.
- let stand at room temperature for a minimum of 1 hour or up to 12 hours.
- drain and use as directed.
if you are super short on time, you can cook the cashews in a pot of boiling water for 10 minutes, then use and drain as directed.
