Are you bored with everyday spaghetti and sauce try this Jollof
Spaghetti--An easy to make recipe with just a couple of ingredients
and your lunch or dinner table is set.

Blend the bell pepper, scotch bonnet, tomatoes, and onion in a
high-speed blender until smooth.

Heat the vegetable oil over medium heat in a large skillet or pot.
Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent. About 3 minutes

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook until fragrant--a few
seconds.

Add the tomato paste and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes.

Add the blended sauce to the pot and stir in paprika, thyme, curry
powder, salt, pepper, and bay leaves. Then reduce the heat to
medium-low and simmer for about 10 minutes allowing the flavors to
meld together.

Pour in the chicken or beef broth, stirring constantly to create a
smooth sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil on high heat.

Taste the sauce and season with salt & black pepper as needed.

Add the pasta, cover, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the
pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

If using vegetables (peas, sweet corn, carrots), stir it in at this
point, mix well, and let the mixture simmer for another 2 to 3
minutes.

Serve your spaghetti Jollof hot with chicken or beef and enjoy it
with a side of plantains, salad, or your favorite side dish.
