Spicy Red Sauce Pasta

To make the perfect Spicy Red Sauce Pasta, there are a few tips to keep in mind. First, be sure to cook your pasta in plenty of salted water until it's springy and chewy - but not mushy. Once it's done, drain and rinse in cold water.

For the sauce, start by combining butter, flour, and milk in a 1:1.5:1.5 ratio for the right consistency. Then, cook your veggies over high heat until they're just crispy - don't overcook them! Add tomato paste and red chili flakes to taste. Finally, mix everything together - the pasta, the veggies, and the sauce - until well combined. Serve hot and enjoy the spicy kick!
