My One-Pot Pasta… A sure healthy solution to the ubiquitous 2-Minute Maggie Noodles! My children can scare the living daylights out of me when they are hungry and their meal is either gonna take longer or isn’t entirely to their liking…This is when they start negotiating for some form of junk food in the garb of a quick fix.(I am sure Moms with young children are likely to relate to this phenomenon!)… In the past, I would succumb to their innocence with a sense of guilt which of course didn’t last for too long…At such times this one-pot pasta is truly a huge saviour… appealing to both Moms and children alike!
It’s really super easy and more importantly really quick to make… bcoz unlike other methods of cooking this one doesn’t require pre-boiling the pasta. All the yummy and healthy ingredients are simply thrown into a single pot along with the pasta and cooked together.
Idea and recipe credits…. my cousin Vrinda, who taught me this on her annual trip to Indore. She is a complete foodie and we can endlessly discuss our culinary passions, explore and relish new recipes during our stays with each other… This dish is easy to tweak depending on your tastes and available ingredients for e.g., you can substitute the cherry tomatoes with fresh ones…Also feel free to alter the spice level, garlic etc.
An absolute no fuss recipe any novice can also stir up effortlessly. It turns out to be a great option for kids studying away from home, bachelors tired of the usual routine or anyone who doesn’t have the luxury of time and yet wants to eat something tasty and healthy but away from the regular…
You can also serve this with garlic toast and a glass of wine and yet enjoy your meal guilt free!!
Please do share your feedback including your variations!
Getting ready to order out your pasta on Swiggy, Uber Eats, Meals on Wheels etc., do try this recipe before you do so…Next time onwards I am sure you will know which is faster to turn around apart from being tastier and fresher!
Bon Appétit!!!
