Start by cooking the pasta according to the instructions. Then, rinse the rocket and set it aside. Dice the red bell pepper into smaller pieces, and finely chop the garlic and dried tomatoes. Slice both types of salami into strips, drain the water from the mozzarella and set the balls aside. Next, mix all the prepared ingredients together in a bowl.
