Ingredients

1/2 cup of cashew nut
1 onion (peeled and sliced)
1 garlic (peeled and sliced)
1/2 inch of ginger (peeled and grated)
1 red bell pepper (chopped)
1/2 red chili pepper (sliced)
1 cup of tomato sauce
1 tbsp of pine nuts
200g of Mezze Maniche pasta
1 tbsp of fresh cilantro (chopped)

Mix the cashew nut with a pinch of salt in a blender until it is smoothe like butter (about 10 minutes).
Cook the pasta for one minute less than indicated on the package. (The pasta will cook for an extra minute later, in the frying pan.)

Mix the cashew butter with the tomato sauce.
Pour the cashew tomato sauce mix into the frying pan and turn the heat to low heat.
Once the sauce begins to bubble, put the pasta in the frying pan.
Add a half teaspoon of ground black pepper.
Cook for 1 more minute.
Top with fresh cilantro and pine nuts.
