- Whilst frypan is heating up dice onion, capsicum, crushed garlic, then add to the pan, cook for 2 minutes
- Whilst that is cooking, slice the chorizos into thin slices then add to frypan and cook for 2 minutes
- Add diced tomatoes, cream, salt and pepper, and herbs and cook for a few minutes.
- Then add pasta and stir until incorporated.
- Add pasta mixture to an oiled baking dish, top with cheese and bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is golden.
