Sweet Potato And Red Pepper Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
• Meanwhile, add the oil and butter to a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the garlic and onions and saute until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chopped red peppers and cook until hot, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Carefully transfer the contents of the skillet to a food processor or blender. Put on the lid and puree the pepper mixture until totally blended (there will still be some texture to the peppers).
• Pour the pepper puree back into the skillet. Add the broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper, and stir until heated. Splash in the cream and stir to combine. Add the parsley and basil and stir to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning if you need to.
• Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet. Add the Parmesan, and then stir it together to coat the pasta.
• Serve in bowls with extra Parmesan and a sprinkling of parsley and basil on top.

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into 1 1/4-inch cubes. Drop them in cold water to prevent discoloration.
• Core and remove the seeds and the veins of the sweet peppers. Cut them into 1/4-inch cubes.
• Drain the potatoes and add them to a saucepan with water to cover and salt. Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 1/2 minutes. Drain.
• Heat the oil in a large, nonstick skillet. Add the potatoes, and cook over medium-high heat, shaking the skillet and stirring occasionally so that the potatoes cook evenly. Cook for about 5 minutes until they begin to brown.
• Add the red peppers, onions, salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, shaking the skillet until the potatoes are nicely browned.
• Drain the potatoes into a colander. Return them to the skillet and add the butter. Cook for a few minutes, shaking and tossing the skillet. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Rub each potato with a little oil and salt, then wrap in a double layer of foil.
• Pour the oil into a bowl and stir in the mint. Add the halloumi and toss until well coated in the minty oil. Wrap each piece in a strip of pepper. Cut four lengths of foil about 1cm wide and wrap one around the middle of each parcel to hold them together. You could use skewers instead, but be careful not to split the cheese.
• Heat the barbecue. When the coals glow red, put the potatoes directly on them. Cook for 30 mins, turning halfway. Unwrap a potato and check if it is cooked through. If not, rewrap and cook more, checking every 10 mins. Alternatively, bake in the oven at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 50 mins-1 hr.
• Meanwhile cook the pepper parcels on the barbecue or a griddle pan for 3-4 mins each side or until the pepper chars and the cheese melts a bit. Remove from the grill and unwind the foil or remove the skewers. Split the potatoes, add butter if you like, then lay a parcel in the centre of each. Add a squeeze of lemon and scatter over some parsley to serve.
