How to Make Angel Hair With Roasted Vegetables And Red Wine Tomato Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the vegetables: Chop 1 red bell pepper, 1 yellow bell pepper, 1 zucchini, and 1 cup of cherry or grape tomatoes into 1-inch pieces. Toss the chopped vegetables with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Roast the garlic: Cut the top off of 1 head of garlic, drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and wrap tightly in foil. Place the garlic and vegetables in a jelly roll pan and roast for 40-45 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
  4. While the vegetables roast, prepare the sauce: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 small onion, finely chopped, and sauté for 5 minutes, until softened.
  5. Add 28 ounces (794g) of crushed tomatoes, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional). Bring to a simmer.
  6. After 10 minutes, squeeze the roasted garlic cloves from their skins and mash with a fork. Stir half of the roasted garlic into the vegetables and set aside the other half for the sauce.
  7. Add 1/2 cup of dry red wine to the simmering sauce and stir. Continue simmering for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  8. Stir in the remaining roasted garlic into the sauce.
  9. Cook 8 ounces (227g) of angel hair pasta according to package directions. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce.
  10. Toss to coat the pasta evenly. Serve immediately, topped with the roasted vegetables and grated Parmesan cheese to taste.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
