Ingredients:

  • 200g tagliatelle (or other wide pasta)

  • 100g cooked red kidney beans

  • 2 tomatoes (or canned tomatoes)

  • 1/2 onion, finely chopped

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • Chopped basil or parsley (optional, for garnish)

  • 1 teaspoon black tea powder barbecue seasoning

Instructions:

  1. Cook the pasta: Boil the tagliatelle in salted water until about 90% cooked (al dente). Drain and set aside.

  2. Make the sauce: In a pan, heat olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant. Add chopped tomatoes and cook until soft and saucy.

  3. Add beans and season: Stir in the red kidney beans. Season with salt, black tea powder barbecue seasoning and black pepper. Simmer over medium heat for about 3 minutes to let the flavors combine.

  4. Mix in the pasta: Add the cooked pasta to the sauce. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly with the sauce.

  5. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with chopped parsley or basil before serving. Enjoy warm!
