Easy Tomato Pasta

I know I have been away for way too long. I do have a reason (aka excuse), of course. Err.. Work! Anyway, I am back with yet another dish which I have been wanting to make for a long time. Pasta!! I think this can pass off as one of the easiest things I made and came out great though it was a first attempt.
What I Used:

Pasta (boiled with little salt) - 1 cup
Tomatoes - 2 medium
Onions - 1, finely diced
Crushed garlic - 6 cloves
Crushed red chillies - 3
Pepper powder - 1 tsp
Capsicum - half
Oil - 1 tbsp

How I Made It:

1. Saute onions and garlic in oil till golden brown.

2. Add pepper and crushed chillies and fry for a min.

3. Make a puree out of the tomatoes and add to the above mixture, along with the capsicum. Boil for 3 mins.

4. Add the boiled pasta and keep on fire for another 2-3 mins. Add salt to taste.

It was slightly bland, but it was great for dinner. If you have any suggestions in making pasta dishes more flavourful, do let me know. Adding cheese would be a last option, since its not too healthy (though I love cheese!).

Sending this over to Presto Pasta Night. Thank you KayKat for reminding me of this wonderful event where I can share my recipe :)
