Fusilli Pasta

Ingredients

• 250 grams Fusilli Pasta
• 2 onion medium sized chopped
• 1/4 tsp black pepper powder
• 7-8 garlic cloves chopped
• 4-5 Tomatoes Puree
• 1 tsp red chilli powder
• Salt to taste
• 1/4 cup Tomato ketchup
• Seasoning as Required (Oregano, Chilli flakes, Mix herbs, etc)
• 3 tbsp Olive Oil
• 2 cubes Cheese grated
• Water as required

Steps

1. Bring water to a boil in a thick-bottomed pan and add olive oil and salt. When the water has boiled, add the Fusilli pasta and cook over a high flame for 10 mins, until it is soft when bitten.
2. Lift the pasta from the pan into a strainer and add oil to it immediately. Use a fork to separate the pasta so it does not stick together. Keep the boiled water in reserve.
3. Heat oil in a kadhai, add the chopped garlic, and wait until it turns transparent before adding onion. Sauté the onion well until transparent. Mix in tomato puree, salt to taste, red chilli powder and black pepper powder thoroughly. Wait for the moisture in the tomato puree to reduce, then mix in the tomato ketchup. Add the reserved pasta water, followed by seasonings such as chilli flakes, mixed herbs, oregano, etc., and mix well. Add the Fusilli, mix gently, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
4. Mix thoroughly once more, and spread some grated cheese over the pasta when serving.
5. Offer the pasta hot.
