Blackened Veggie Pasta

This is a very quick version of pasta and anyone can cook this with ease. This marks the first non-Indian dish in my blog. Not a very good picture for the blog ..still gotta work on this area!!


Ingredients
  • Long Pasta or spaghetti
  • Powdered pepper
  • Salt
  • Tomatoes - 2 
  • Onions -     1
  • Store bought Alfredo sauce as shown below or you can make your own sauce
Pre-cooking
  • None
Method
  • Take some water and bring it to boil in a stove pot.
  • Now add the Pasta with little salt.
  • In the meanwhile ,cut the onions and tomatoes and saute them with little oil.
  • The pasta should be boiling now and check if it is ready by taking a sample.(The pasta is done when it sticks in any cupboard when you throw it..a bit fun testing ;) )
  • Now comes the easy part. Add the pasta,tomato & onions ,sauce and pepper and whisk them.
  • Viola, your blackened pasta is ready to serve.
Serving suggestions
  • You can also add carrots and beans or any other veggies that you would like in your Pasta.
Tips
  • Serve the pasta hot otherwise the taste will be lost.
  • Reheating in microwave will not be a tasty as the fresh.
And this is entry to the Pasta Party event @ Panch Pakwan and thus marking my first event participation.

  1. When I saw the words "blackened pasta" I thought this was some dish where you deliberately burn the pasta! Funny tip about testing if the pasta's done :)
