Cooking Steps

Roast the Veg
1

a) Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with ¼ tsp salt for the pasta.

b) Trim the aubergine, then cut into roughly 2cm pieces.

c) Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks. 

d) Pop both veg onto a baking tray, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out and roast on the top shelf until soft, 15-18 mins. Turn halfway through.

Cook the Linguine
2

a) While the veg roasts, add the linguine to the pan of boiling water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.

b) Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back into the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

Prep Time
3

a) Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 

Simmer the Sauce
4

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Once hot, add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 secs. 

b) Stir in the chopped tomatoes, veg stock paste, sun-dried tomato paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper.

c) Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, 4-5 mins.

Mix in the Veg and Pasta
5

a) Once everything's cooked, combine the roasted veg, cooked pasta and sauce in whichever pan is the largest. 

b) Stir in half the hard Italian style cheese and the butter (see pantry for amount), until melted.

c) Add a splash of water if it looks a little dry.

d) Season to taste with salt and pepper if needed.

Finish and Serve
6

a) When everything's ready, serve your roasted pepper and aubergine linguine in bowls.

b) Finish with a sprinkling of remaining cheese and a drizzle of pesto.
