pasta with chunky rosemary chilli tomato sauce

[helen_bakes]

I love it when I'm home alone and I can take my time to cook, eat and clean up afterwards. While it was quite nerve-wrecking when I first started cooking, now I take all possible mistakes and disasters in my stride and enjoy the process for what it is - relaxing, educational, and deeply satisfying. A very satisfying recipe today - lovely tomato

Seeing as I'm not a big fan of spicy, how do you think this would work if I subbed a red bell pepper for the chile and went with the 1/4 tsp dried chilli? Or taking out the chilli altogether and subbing in hot sausage slices?

hot sausage slices would work amazingly! that would be super delicious. if you're still going with the chilli and just cooking for one i'd recommend using just a tiny pinch of chilli flakes, like half or less of a 1/4tsp. if using fresh chilli use 1/4 of a large red one (generally the smaller the more deadly) or use a green one - more flavour and less heat. i'm not too sure about subbing with a red bell pepper as those aren't spicy where i come from. honestly, if you want to completely leave out the chilli this recipe would still be great. hope i helped!

I´m correcting the second sentence of her post. Nerve-racking or nerve-wracking are correct. Nerve-wrecking is not.
