Step-by-Step Method
1. Boil the Pasta
Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan and add a little salt. Next, add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until tender but slightly firm.
Drain the cooked pasta and keep it aside.
2. Prepare the Flavor Base
Heat olive oil or butter in a pan over medium heat. Add garlic paste and sauté briefly until aromatic.
Avoid overcooking the garlic, as it may develop a bitter taste.
3. Cook the Vegetables
Add the chopped onion, capsicum and sweet corn or mixed vegetables to the pan.
Sauté for a few minutes until the vegetables become slightly tender while retaining some crunch.
4. Make the Creamy Sauce
Pour milk or cooking cream into the pan. Next, add salt and black pepper.
Stir everything thoroughly and allow the mixture to simmer gently until it develops a smooth and creamy consistency.
5. Add Crait Peri Peri
Add 2 tablespoons of Crait Peri Peri seasoning to the creamy sauce and mix thoroughly.
This important step gives the Peri Peri Pasta Recipe its bold, spicy and tangy flavor. Furthermore, the seasoning blends beautifully with the creamy sauce to create a delicious restaurant-style taste.
6. Combine the Pasta
Add the boiled pasta to the prepared peri peri sauce. Toss gently until every piece of pasta is evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
Allow everything to cook together for another 1–2 minutes so the flavors combine properly.
7. Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle grated cheese and chilli flakes over the pasta if desired. For an extra flavor boost, you can also add a light sprinkle of Crait Peri Peri before serving.
Serve the Peri Peri Pasta Recipe immediately while it is warm and creamy.
