How to make Indian Style Masala Macaroni Recipe

1.      To begin making the Indian Style Masala Macaroni Pasta Recipe, get all the ingredients ready for cooking. Cut the vegetables and keep them ready.

2.      Cook the macaroni pasta in boiling water, along with a little salt until al dente (firm yet cooked). Once done, drain the excess water and rinse the paste in cold water to prevent excess cooking. Toss the pasta in oil and keep aside. We do this, so the pasta does not stick to each and become lumpy.

3.      Blanch the tomatoes in water and boil for about 5 to 8 minutes, until you notice that the skin is cracking up. Once done, remove from water and allow it to cool. Peel the skin of the tomatoes and roughly puree the tomatoes in a blender. Keep aside.

4.      Heat oil in a wok or a kadai on medium heat. Add the garlic, onions, carrots and capsicum. Sprinkle some salt, cover the pan and saute on medium heat until the carrots are cooked through.

5.      Once cooked, open and stir fry on medium high heat. Add the pureed tomatoes, the pav bhaji masala and the cooked macaroni, toss on high heat until the macaroni pasta gets well coated with the masala.

6.      Check the salt and spices and adjust to taste. Once done, stir in the chopped coriander leaves and turn off the heat.

7.      Transfer the Indian Style Masala Macaroni Recipe to a serving bowl and serve warm.

8.      Serve the Indian Style Masala Macaroni Pasta as a tea time snack or an after school snack for kids. It also makes a great salad when served chilled. You can even serve it with Minestrone Soup for dinner.
