Cooking Steps

Get prepped & roast the veggies
1
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. 
  • Roughly chop capsicum and zucchini into bite-sized chunks. Slice brown onion into wedges. 
  • Place capsicum, zucchini and onion on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. 
  • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. 

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays. 

Cook the pasta
2
  • When the veggies have 15 minutes remaining, boil the kettle. 
  • Half-fill a large saucepan with boiled water, add a generous pinch of salt.
  • Cook penne in boiling water over high heat until 'al dente', 12 minutes. 
  • Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people). 
  • Drain penne, then return to the saucepan. 

TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
