What should be the pasta sauce? Creamy, creamy, cheesy, with a deep and rich taste. This is exactly how the sauce is made according to this recipe: with baked bell peppers, two types of cheese and cream.
It is better to prepare such a sauce immediately before serving, but the pepper can be baked in advance, cooled, peeled and stored in the refrigerator (first sprinkle with olive oil and store in a tightly closed container, 1-2 days) or in the freezer. The taste of the baked pepper will not change from freezing, but the texture will slightly suffer, but in this recipe this is not important, since the pepper is still pureed.

Preparation: Step 1
The first step is to prepare the pepper: the oven needs to be heated to 175 grams C, the pepper needs to be washed and put on a baking sheet. You need to bake the peppers for an hour, from time to time turning from one side to the other with tongs or two spatulas, until "scorch marks" appear. Put the baked peppers in a bowl and cover with foil, so that later it will be easier to peel.
While the pepper is cooling, we put the pasta to boil in salted water and begin to prepare the sauce. Grate all the cheese on a coarse grater (you will need it later). Finely chop the onion and garlic and fry in olive oil until transparent and pleasant aroma, 2-3 minutes.
Add milk and cream to the onion and garlic and mix.
Add the grated cheese (part of the grated Parmesan can be left to sprinkle on top when serving) and heat the sauce,stirring until the cheese is completely melted. Turn off the heat, but leave it on the hot stove.
In the meantime, the baked peppers are probably already cold, you can peel them of seeds and peels and chop them coarsely.
Add the chopped peppers to the sauce and puree with the hand blender. Now you can salt and pepper to taste.
We wash the boiled pasta.
Mix the pasta with the sauce. The more sauce, the tastier!
Serve the pasta with sauce immediately, if desired, sprinkle with the previously grated Parmesan.
