Green Indian special Macaroni pasta.
Hi fellow blogger and followers if any. I won’t be talking about greenery and plantation. After all this is not the blog for social enlightenment. I am working on such a blog as well. I would present the same to you later on it.
In today’s world everyone is talking about green revolution and go green go veggie for good health. Go green for happy body and soul. May be in later stage of my life I would think of this preposition a well and that also strongly.
Due respect to veggie people. I am dedicating this dish to them as a mark of respect.
It all happened yesterday. I was supposed to take my wife to a parlor for a haircut. The plan was that I would take care of my 7 months old angel when my wife gets her hair cut done. As usual I couldn’t make it and my wife was all burning hot with anger. I tried all my charm but ……….
Inspired by Master Chef 2 I thought about cooking something unique and different to impress and vow her back. Sunday is marketing day we have a Sunday bazaar where I stay. I that bazaar we buy all our vegetables and grocery. Obviously we couldn’t even go shopping. My fridge was all empty.
Problem Problem Problem.
A day before we had bought Palak which was still unused. I had half a pack of macaroni. And then I had a brainstorming session and eureka I got an Idea. Idea gave birth to the Green Indian special macaroni/Pasta. My creation. It tasted good. Lets all make it.
Half a packet of sooji macaroni.
• 500 gms or as much as available Palak chopped.
• Indian massalas to taste, (garam masala, red pepper, Jeera powder, Dhaniya powder etc)
• Little Jeera
• Refined oil 2 spoon or as per taste
• Some onions based on the quantity of pasta
• Tomato’s chopped
• Little milk
Take the macaroni and wash it with oil such that the macaroni is covered with oil. This would prevent them from sticking to each other after boiling. You can sprinkle some salt to give it a slight flavor. I used my Godrej microwave oven at Hi heat for 10 minutes to boil the macaroni and it does the trick. You can boil it on gas for 20 min or so. Make sure it’s not over cooked or else it would break and would look non presentable. Drain out excess water.
In the mean time take a big pan and put 2 spoons of oil in it. I use my cooker as it is large. When the oil is hot put in the jeera and cook for some time. Add onion to it and keep on cooking in slow fire. The smell of the slightly cooked onion would tell you the time to add palak in the pan. Put in the palak and cook in slow fire for some time. The palak would become dark green and would start leaving water. Add all the Indian massalas at this time while continuing stirring. Within 2-3 minutes add boiled pasta and again keep cooking. Don’t forget to stir gently as if that’s your gf or bf and for married people I would suggest as if you’re newly married spouse.
Add some red chilly powder and later on the milk to give a consistency. Stir for some time. Put the chopped tomatoes and cook for another 10 min.
Dish is ready to serve. Garnish it with some dried bread chopped if you want. Your Green Indian special Macaroni pasta is ready.
Happy cooking.
