Creamy and smoothly coated pasta from the sour cream-tomato mixture, with pockets of tender spaghetti. Roasted potatoes provide soft, slightly fluffy interiors with lightly crisped edges, and the green pepper adds occasional crunchy bites for contrast.
Warm tomato and olive oil dominate the aroma, joined by a subtle roasted potato scent and fresh green pepper top notes. A gentle dairy tang from the sour cream rounds out the nose, giving a mild savory-creamy impression.
A crisp, unoaked white like Sauvignon Blanc or a light-bodied Italian red such as Chianti; alternatively sparkling water with lemon for a nonalcoholic option.
Garlic bread or bruschetta, a simple mixed green salad with a lemon vinaigrette, or roasted seasonal vegetables (e.g., zucchini, eggplant) to complement the meal.
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package directions (usually 8-10 minutes). Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add diced potatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and turn golden.
Add chopped green pepper to the pan with potatoes. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the pepper is slightly tender but still has a little crunch.
Pour tomato sauce into the pan with the vegetables. Stir well and let it heat through for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the pan and toss everything together until well combined. Serve immediately while hot.
