Ingredients

  • 1 cup Macaroni
  • 1 big Onion
  • 2 to 3 tbsp Tomato Sauce / Tomatoes – 2 medium
  • 1/2 tsp Ginger Garlic Paste
  • 1/2 tsp Red Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Pepper Powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 tsp Cooking Oil
  • 1 tsp Cheese
  • Coriander Leaves for garnish

Instructions

  • Boil a large pan of water and add the macaroni to it. When it starts boiling, add few drops of oil to prevent the macaroni from sticking together. Cook on high, it takes about 7 to 10 mins to get soft macaroni. Drain the water and keep aside. You can again add few drops of oil.
  • Heat a pan with oil, add finely chopped onions, sauté till its done. If you are adding Tomato Sauce, add and allow it to cook till it gets done. If you are using tomatoes chunks, ensure the tomatoes turn to mush and gets cooked well. 
  • At this stage add the salt, chilli powder and combine well. Add the cooked pasta. Combine everything well. Add the pepper powder and mix.
  • Finally, garnish with grated cheese and coriander. The cheese normally melts due to the heat, else micro it for a minute.

Notes

If you are using Tomatoes, add a pinch of sugar.  Add pepper just before switching it off. Since we are adding both chili powder and pepper powder, use as per taste.
