Pasta Primavera

>> Monday, July 6, 2009

An incredibly easy and tasty pasta dish with lots of veggies. My twist is to make it with fresh spring onions which give this classic dish a unique flavor.


Ingredients:
1 cup pasta ( fusili preferred )
1 bunch of spring onions, chopped finely
1/4 cup fresh corn kernels
1/2 cup capsicum, chopped finely
1/2 cup other chopped vegetables ( carrot, brocolli etc. )
1/2 cup cream
1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
1 tsp chilli flakes
shredded cheese ( parmesan preferred, but any other cheese will do )
seasoning ( basil, oregano etc. )
2 tbsp olive oil
salt to taste

Method:

  • Take enough water in a large vessel. Add a little salt and olive oil. Bring the water to a boil and add the pasta.
  • Cook till the pasta is tender. Keep 1 cup of remaining water aside. Drain the pasta and keep it aside.
  • In a pan, add olive oil and heat it. Add ginger-garlic paste and cook for a minute. Add the spring onions and saute for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add all the vegetables along with salt and chilli flakes. Cover the pan and cook on low heat till all vegetables are done.
  • Add the pasta water you had set aside along with the cream. Mix well.
  • Add the seasoning of your choice and mix well.
  • Turn off the heat and add the cheese.
  • Ready to serve
Serving Suggestions:
  • Serve as a snack, starter or even a meal.
