How to make Ziti with Poblanos and Chipotle Sauce

Cook onion, poblanos, and 1/2 teaspoons salt in oil in a heavy medium pot over medium heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until onion is golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Add red peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender, 2 to 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook ziti in a pasta pot of boiling salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 5.7L water) until al dente. Reserve 240ml cooking water, then drain ziti.

While ziti cooks, purée chipotles with soured cream in a blender.

Add purée to onion mixture with spring onions, coriander, 1/4 cup cooking water, and 1/2 teaspoons salt and bring to a simmer, stirring. Add ziti and toss, moistening with additional cooking water if desired. Season with salt.
