Sehriye Pasta Dish (Turkish)

Submitted by PanNan

"This simple pasta dish delivers a lot of flavor using a few simple ingredients. By adding more stock you can make it a soup. For authentic flavor, use pul biber (Aleppo red chili pepper flakes) if you can find it. It's based on a recipe from the Seasonal Cook in Turkey blog."

This was super easy to prepare, but it's packed with flavor. The sauteed peppers and tomatoes added a lot of flavor. I'm glad I tried this recipe, because it's quite good. We enjoyed this a lot! I made it exactly as written and didn't change any of the ingredients or preparation, and it turned out perfect. Thanks, PanNan. Made for Culinary Quest 2017 (Turkey).
