This tasty fusion Indian-style Macaroni recipe is filled with flavor and includes veggies like carrots, green beans, cauliflower, capsicum, baby corn, potatoes, peas paired with Indian seasonings and herbs. Make the Macaroni Pasta in just 30 minutes and serve as a main or side dish.

Macaroni Recipe (Indian Style Macaroni Pasta)

elbow macaroni (or macaroni (heaped) - 125 grams)

salt

oil oil

garlic (- minced or finely chopped, or 3 to 4 small garlic cloves, minced

onions

mix vegetables (- chopped,

green peas (– fresh or frozen)

black pepper powder ((ground black pepper))

turmeric powder

¼ teaspoon Garam Masala

Kashmiri red chilli powder

Coriander Powder

cumin powder

salt (as per taste)

herbs

coriander leaves (or parsley, chopped,

In a pan, heat 3 cups water and ½ teaspoon salt. Bring the water to a boil.

Add the macaroni and stir with a fork.

Begin to cook macaroni pasta on medium to high heat till they are al dente – meaning they should have a slight bite to them.

Drain all the water and keep cooked macaroni aside.

Cooking macaroni

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a pan. Lower the heat. Add ½ teaspoon minced garlic or finely chopped garlic. You can also add ½ teaspoon of garlic paste or ½ teaspoon of ginger-garlic paste instead.

Sauté for some seconds on a low heat till the garlic is light brown or till its raw aroma goes away.

Next add the finely chopped onions. 

Mix and sauté onions on a medium-low heat stirring often till they become translucent and are softened.

Next add the finely chopped tomatoes and mix well.

Cover the pan with lid. In between do check when cooking tomatoes.

Cook tomatoes on a low to medium-low heat till they soften and become pulpy. 

Then sauté tomatoes for a few minutes without the lid until you see oil separating from the onion-tomato masala.

Lower the heat and then add all the ground spice powders one by one. 

Mix and sauté the spice powders for some seconds till you get a nice aroma from the ground spices.

Add the chopped mix vegetables and the green peas. Remember to chop the veggies in small cubes, so that they cook quickly.

Season with salt as per taste and mix very well.

Pour 1 cup water and mix again. Cover the pan with lid.

On a medium-low to medium heat simmer till the vegetables are cooked. In between do check and if the water has become less you can add some more water.

After the veggies are tender, there should be a bit of curry sauce or gravy sauce in the veggie mixture – about 2 to 3 tablespoons.

Cooking vegetables

Once the vegetables are cooked and tender, add the cooked macaroni.

Mix well and cook for a few more minutes until all the curry sauce is absorbed or very little is left behind. Stir occasionally. 

Lastly add 1 teaspoon of mixed dry herbs – basil, thyme, oregano, parsley and mix again. Also add a few pinches of red chilli flakes.

Check the seasonings and add more of salt or herbs if required.

Serve Macaroni Pasta hot or warm. You can top with some grated cheddar or vegetarian parmesan cheese or cream before serving. 

Garnish the pasta with some finely chopped coriander leaves or parsley or any fresh herb of your choice before serving.

Making macaroni pasta

One-Pan Cheesy Salsa Pasta is a Mexican-inspired dinner idea that you can make easily in 30 minutes or less -- and you'll have only one pan to clean up!

One-Pan Cheesy Salsa Pasta

pouch Progresso Recipe Starters Fire-Roasted Tomato Cooking Sauce (9)

chicken broth (14)

salsa

black beans

whole grain pasta (such as macaroni)

shredded cheese (12 ounces,

Optional toppings: Chopped tomatoes (chopped

In a large frying pan, combine all ingredients, except for the cheese. Heat to boiling over high heat. When liquid begins to boil, reduce heat to a low simmer and cover.

Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until pasta is tender and nearly all liquid has been absorbed. Remove from heat and immediately gently stir in about 4 ounces of the shredded cheese (about 1 cup) into the hot pasta. Sprinkle remaining 8 ounces (about 2 cups) on top of the hot pasta, cover with lid until melted. Serve with optional toppings.

TIP: If desired, place pan (if heat resistant to high temperatures) under broiler to brown cheese a bit (this is completely optional).

I am thrilled with the information I have just got.
