    List of Ingredients




    1/4 cup olive oil
    2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
    2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
    4 yellow bell peppers, cored, seeded and cut in 8ths
    4 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and cut in 8ths
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1 cup fresh basil leaves, slivered
    4 plum tomatoes, seeded and cut into 4 pieces each
    salt and pepper
    8 ounces rigatoni, or penne, uncooked
    1/4 pound ricotta salata cheese

    Place oil in large heavy pot over low heat. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Do not brown.

    Add onions and cook 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    Add bell peppers and cook for 10 minutes, stirring, over medium heat.

    Add wine and 3/4 cup basil. Cook 7-10 minutes, stirring, or until the peppers are very soft.

    Add the tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and place in a large shallow pasta bowl.

    Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, 8-12 minutes. Drain.

    Toss the pasta with the sauce. Add remaining basil and toss again to combine. Coarsely grate the ricotta salata over all and toss lightly. Serve immediately.
