Spaghetti Pasta- Indian Style Pasta
Equipment
- 1 heavy bottomed wok
- 1 large pan for boiling spaghetti
- 1 Colander
Ingredients

Instructions
- Take all the vegetables and wash them under tap. For spaghetti, the strands would be long so I had broken them in halves so that they are fully immersed in water for boiling.
- Take a large heavy bottom pan and fully dip the spaghetti in water. You may cover it for effective heating. Note to cover with id that has a hole or else the water would come out.
- In the meantime, you may chop the veggies. Onion into vertical/small, capsicum vertical slice, carrot small and tomato small/grated. Take a Kadai and heat oil in it. Once hot, add garlic and onions.
- We like crunchy veggies in pasta so overcooking of veggies may spoil the taste. Once onions are transparent, add carrot and capsicum. add little salt here and cover with lid. little salt added here helps in the cooking
- Once veggies become soft, add tomatoes.
- Now this looks almost cooked vegetables.
- You may add spices
- Our spaghetti is boiled and we can sieve it. Pass it through fresh water.
- Add the boiled spaghetti to cooked vegetables. Add salt.
- Mix well using two large spatulas.
- The spaghetti pasta is ready. Serve it your choice of chutney and olive oil.
