Wheat Pasta - Desi Style

I am back after a long break for a special reason. My comeback entry is wheat pasta made with desi masala's. I like to try cuisines from new places while my husband is more comfortable with the desi veggie flavours, so this is a perfect combo to satsfy both of us. I fried a few vegetables in oil with the readily available tomato sauce (Tostitos Salsa in this case). Then I tossed in the boiled pasta and sprinkled it with black pepper,salt and few indian spices :). Its that simple !
Still I am going to make a list of ingredients and steps to maintain the format with my postings till now.



Ingredients :
Wheat Pasta
Chopped vegetables - Onion/Capsicum/Carrots/Spring Onions/Green Chillies
Salt,Pepper, Cheese of your choice.
Spices - Coriander powder and any other masala of your choice (I used goda masala)


Steps:
1> Boil Water in a big vessel. Add pasta to boiling water and let it cook till soft.
2> Drain water from cooked pasta. If your vegetable mix is going to take a long time to get ready then add few drops of oil into the cooked pasta and toss it. This step is to avoid the pasta become one big sticky ball.
3> While the pasta is boilding, take another pan and heal oil in it.
4> Add chopped onions and chopped green chillies(I use whole chillies withjust one long cut in the middle)
5> Add he remaining chopped vegetables which may include carrots/capsicum/spring onion and so on. I avoid tomatoes because my sauce has ample tomatoes in it.
6> Add 3-4 table spoons of the ketchup/sauce alongwith the desi spices of your choice and stir the vegetables well.
7> Once the vegetables look cooked, sprinkle with some salt and pepper and and the boiled pasta. Mix it well without breaking the pasta.
8>Add a cheese slice and remove the pan from heat. As the cheese melts mix it well into the pasta and serve hot.
9> You may garnish with lemon juice and cilantro to add more desi touch.
