Cooking Steps
1
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the rigatoni. TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
- Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks, then pop onto a lined baking tray.
- Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then roast on the top shelf of the oven until tender and slightly charred, 20-25 mins.
2
- When boiling, add the rigatoni to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until softened, 12 mins. Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot, off the heat. Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.
- Pop the garlic (unpeeled) into a small piece of foil.
- Drizzle in a little oil then scrunch to enclose.
3
- Halfway through the pepper roasting time, pop the garlic parcel onto the same baking tray. Roast until softened, 10-12 mins.
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the bacon until golden brown all over, 5-7 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.
- Once cooked, remove from the pan and set aside.
4
- Return the pan to medium-high heat.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, muscat and central american spice.
- Mix in ½ tsp sugar (per 2P) and 50ml water (per 2P). Season with salt and pepper then bring to the boil.
- Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 4-5 mins.
- Add the spinach to the sauce, a handful at a time, stirring until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
5
- Once the garlic is roasted, allow to cool, then squeeze the flesh out of the skin. Mash with the back of a fork and stir into the sauce.
- Once the pepper has roasted, stir it through the sauce along with the fried bacon.
- Add a knob of butter and pop in the cooked pasta into the sauce.
- Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar. Add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if you feel it's too thick.
6
- Divide the roasted pepper rigatoni between bowls.
- Drizzle over the chipotle sauce onto the pasta.
