# 24: Creamy Pasta

Pasta!?!?

I am not very crazy about pastas but yes.. I do like some preparations. Normally, I would prefer a red gravy over a white. But there's always an exception. And the exception is PASTA! :)

Like Pizza, Pasta is something I have always had at a restaurant only. Apart from Macaroni which mom used to prepare for us at home.

There was cream & cheese already in the fridge. Could not think of any thing better and quicker than PASTA..and so my experiments with cooking Pasta began. :)

Ingredients:


(Serves 7)
  1. Penne - 1 packet
  2. Cream - 500 ml
  3. Cheese - 3 cubes
  4. Red Chilies - 3 (cut in circular rings)
  5. Black Olives - 1 cup ( i just love black olives.. )
  6. Baby Corn - 8 pcs ( circularly cut)
  7. Oil/Olive oil - 2 Tbsp
  8. Pepper - 1 tsp
  9. Salt to taste
  10. Oregano ( if you like to add else peper is best!)
Procedure:

Boil some water with 1 tsp of salt and add the penne. Leave the penne to cook. Strain the Penne and wash lightly with cold water and strain. Dab some oil in the boiled penne. Mix and leave. (The oil will ensure the penne do not stick to each other or get soggy.)

Heat oil in a pan and add the red chilies to it. Stir a li'l. Add the baby corn and olives as well. Let the 3 cook for a minute or two. Now, add the cheese cubes to it and let it melt into the pan. Later add the cream and leave it to cook.

Add the Penne to the cream mixture. Mix well. Add salt as per taste as well as sprinkle pepper. Mix well.

The Creamy pasta is all done!



Yummy!!!!   :)

Bon Appetite!
