This must be one of tastiest pasta sauces we ever made. The kitchen is still smelling good right this minute. The flavour that balsamic vinegar gives to this sauce is just incomparable. It even looks aesthetically good as we used nice fresh large red bell pepper, an extra sweet pointed red pepper and a beautiful red onion. Dolcelatte is an Italian blue-veined soft cheese with a wonderful sweet taste and goes very well with the balsamic vinegar aroma. This sauce is very easy to prepare, so you have to give this a go...

  • 400g fusilli
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium extra sweet red pointed pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium red onion, very thinly sliced
  • 150g Dolcelatte, cut into cubes
  • 2-3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • Grated Parmesan, to serve [optional]

Directions

  1. Fry the onion in the olive oil until soft.

  3. When peppers are cooked, add the balsamic vinegar and stir well. Simmer for a few minutes.
