Fideos a la Tumbet is a delightful Spanish pasta dish that harmoniously combines the robust flavors of roasted vegetables with the comforting texture of fideos. This dairy-free recipe offers a deliciously satisfying meal that is both hearty and healthy.

Ingredients

• Fideos pasta - 150 grams
• Red bell pepper - 1 medium, diced
• Zucchini - 1 medium, diced
• Eggplant - 1 small, diced
• Tomato - 2 medium, chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Olive oil - 3 tablespoons
• Vegetable broth - 500 milliliters
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Fresh basil - for garnish

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a baking dish, combine the diced red bell pepper, zucchini, and eggplant with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
3. While the vegetables are roasting, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Add the chopped tomatoes and paprika to the skillet, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes break down slightly.
5. Stir in the fideos pasta and the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Cook for about 8-10 minutes or until the pasta is al dente and has absorbed most of the liquid.
6. Once the vegetables are done roasting, fold them into the pasta mixture. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil.
