Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350F/gas mark 4. Quarter the red peppers removing the seeds and stalk, roughly chop the onion and slice the tomatoes in half. Add to a large baking tray and sprinkle over the oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the garlic cloves, skins still on and drizzle with olive oil, toss so everything is coated in oil. Roast for 25-30 minutes until cooked through, juicy and blackened ever so slightly.
  2. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the bucatini pasta until al dente. Once the veg is cooked, remove from the oven. Remove the garlic from their skins and discard the skins. Add everything to food processor with a tbsp of mascarpone and blitz to a smooth sauce. Taste for seasoning and add more salt if needed.
  3. Pour the sauce over the cooked and drained pasta and toss until thoroughly coated. Serve in bowls and top with some grated ricotta salata.
