Method
 

  1. Sauté the veggies: Melt butter with olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and red bell pepper, cooking until soft and fragrant. Add plenty of garlic if you like extra flavor.
  2. Add the roasted red pepper: Stir in the roasted red pepper spread with a splash of pasta water from your large pot of water. Let it simmer on low heat until the flavors meld into a creamy sauce.
  3. Make it creamy: Pour in heavy cream, stirring gently. If the sauce is too thin, whisk in a small flour slurry to help thicken it up!
  4. Combine with pasta: Add your cooked pasta to the sauce and toss so every piece is coated in the creamy red pepper pasta sauce. A couple of minutes on the heat helps the pasta absorb the flavor.
  5. Finish & serve: Stir in Parmesan cheese and parsley. Top each plate with a fresh ball of burrata. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and extra parsley or fresh basil for freshness.
  6. Eat immediately: Enjoy this delicious pasta while it’s creamy and indulgent. Weekend plans? Optional. This pasta dish? Absolutely essential.
