Sunday’s are god’s gift for working junta, a day to relax
and enjoy. For many people like me, we just like to be lazy and do nothing ;)
Oh how we just love holidays: D
But the horror of horrors is when your maid also decides to
enjoy her Sunday & you have to make your own dinner :O
YOU got the feeling, I know.
Then begins the planning of going out and choosing a good
restaurant. But it being Sunday and that too being in Noida, you wont dare to
step out if u like peace and some “ME TIME”
Also you would be too lazy to make a full course dinner,
anything yummy and requiring less mehnat is what you look for then.Wait a second, I recived a beautiful package from delmonte a few days back. OH yes.
I opened the package & there was a letter in it. Believe
me or not, but it felt like I have received a love letter from a long lost
boyfriend. Every word of it was like” I LOVE YOU, JUST MAKE ME AAND EAT ME TO
SATISFY YOURSELF.”
I opened the package and the beautiful packing which revealed
the best looking pasta I had ever laid my eyes on. May be it was just because I
was very hungry or may be I was in a very romabtic nostalgia.
I still dun know but it was a wonderful parcel.
Though I love cooking but that Sunday I wanted to it
something indian, so I gave the pasta an authentic indian twist.
So here is what you will need:- (serving for 1)
·
DEL MONTE PASTA SPIARALI
·
1 TABLESPOON OLIVE OIL
·
1 TOMATO
·
1 CAPSICUM
·
1 ONION
·
RED CHILLY POWDER & SALT ACC TO TASTE
I am a lover of imli so I decided to make
iMli sauce for this pasta.
So for sauce you will need:-
·
IMLI(TAMARID)
·
SUGAR OR PREFFERABLY JAGGERY( though sugar is equaly
good, but I being a girl…I am health conscious)
Here is the recipe:-
1.
Boil DEL MONTE spiarali pasta with a pinch of
salt in it.
Boil
it for 8-10 mins.( cover the pan for fast boiling & to save gas)
2.
Chop onion, tomato & capsicum.
4.
Put a clean pan on gas & pour olive oil and jeera
in it.
Heat
it till the jeera gets golden color.
5.
Put onion in the pan, & fry till they get
golden brown.
6.
Now put capsicum & fry for some time
7.
Lastly put tomato, salt & chilli powder.
7
Put some water and cook it till the veggies get
cooked. But take care to not overcook it. I like the to be a bit crisp for my
pasta.
#
In the mean time, the pasta will boil, take out
the water & check the pasta if its soft by now.
( how fresh it looked, honestly I was amazed that a packed
product can look & feel this fresh)
8.
Put some imli sauce in the gravy & then put
the pasta & mix it well..
#
For making Sauce:-
1.
Put imali and some water in a pan & heat it.
2.
Add sugar to taste..
The
sauce is very simple to make, just cool it for few mins and u may use it with
or without pulp. I however like to keep the pulp in my sauce.
Take out the pasta in a plate & garnish it
with dhaniya.
So
here it a perfect dinner for Sunday.
#the best part was that it took only 25 mins & no efforts at all :) ^_^
