Pasta Base

Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot of boiling salted water, add the cavatappi pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Vegetable Preparation

  1. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and slice zucchini, bell peppers, and yellow squash into thin strips. Chop the spring onions, separating the green tops from the white parts.

Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the white wine and cook for 1-2 minutes to reduce slightly.

  2. 4

    Add Coconut Milk and Chipotle

    Stir in the coconut milk and chipotle pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.

  3. 5

    Combine with Vegetables

    Add the sliced zucchini, bell peppers, and yellow squash to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender but still crisp. Season with black pepper.

Final Assembly

  1. 6

    Combine Everything

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the vegetable sauce. Toss until well coated. Adjust seasoning as needed.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately, garnished with chopped cilantro and green tops of spring onions.
