Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
Step 2
Roughly chop all vegetables: zucchini, onion, bell peppers, tomatoes, and whatever else you wish to use.
Step 3
Spread them evenly on a parchment-lined baking tray. Spread olive oil and the spices. Give it a rough toss.
Step 4
Roast in the oven for 30–35 minutes until veggies are soft and slightly charred.
Step 5
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package instructions. Reserve 2–3 tablespoons of pasta water and drain the rest.
Step 6
After roasting, allow the veggies to cool for a few minutes. Peel off the skin off the bell peppers if you prefer a smoother texture. Blend them into a smooth sauce. Add coconut milk while blending.
Step 7
Pour the sauce over the cooked pasta, add the reserved pasta water, and mix well over low heat.
Step 8
Taste and adjust salt or seasoning as needed.
Serve hot, topped with chili flakes or cheese if desired.
