Peperonata is a classic Italian dish that's perfect for pasta and super simple to make.

2 tbs olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 celery stalks, trimmed and finely sliced
2 x 400g cans diced tomatoes
2 x 190g jars chargrilled capsicum, drained
2 tbs shredded basil leaves
1/3 cup pitted kalamata olives
400g linguine

Method

1.

Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes until starting to soften. Add garlic and celery and stir for a further 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and capsicums, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes until sauce has thickened. Stir in basil and olives.

Meanwhile, cook the linguine in a large saucepan of boiling salted water according to packet instructions. Drain, add to the peperonata and toss well. Serve with grated parmesan and garnish with extra basil if desired.
