Cooking Steps

Boil the pasta
1
  • Boil plenty of salted water in a pot or saucepan and cook the pasta for 11 - 13 minutes, then drain and set aside.
  • Chop the onion in the meantime.
Fry the chorizo and vegetables
2
  • Heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in a large deep frying pan over medium-high heat.
  • Fry the onion with the chorizo for 2 - 3 minutes.
  • Halve the cherry tomatoes and add to the frying pan, along with the bell pepper strips.
  • Fry for 4 - 5 minutes and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Did you know... cherry tomatoes may be smaller than normal tomatoes, but they are more nutrient-dense; they are richer in potassium and folic acid, as well as vitamins A and C.

Finish the sauce

  • Cook for 1 more minute over high heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
