Bregano Premium Fusilli Pasta is a delightful Italian dish featuring corkscrew-shaped pasta cooked to perfection and combined with a rich, savory tomato sauce, fresh vegetables, and aromatic herbs. It’s a versatile and satisfying meal that can be served as a main course or a side dish.
Step 1:
Cook the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 250 grams of Bregano Premium Fusilli Pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set aside.
Step 2:
Prepare the Sauce
In a large skillet or pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.
Step 3:
Add Vegetables
Add the diced bell pepper and zucchini to the pan. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
Step 4:
Make the Tomato Sauce
Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the crushed tomatoes and tomato paste to the pan. Mix well to combine.
Season with dried basil, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir and let the sauce simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 5:
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the cooked fusilli pasta to the sauce. Toss gently to ensure the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Step 6:
Serve
Transfer the pasta to serving plates. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
Serve hot and enjoy!
