PASTA IN CHEESY SAUCE



Ingredients:

300 grms elbow pasta
3 pips garlic chopped
2 green chillies sliced
6 button mushrooms sliced
2 tbs all purpose flour
1 cup milk
½ cup any vegetable broth
1 tbs olive oil
4 tbs parmesan cheese
1 tsp oregano
Little fresh parsley
Ground pepper to taste
Salt to taste

Method:
Boil the elbow pasta in lots of water, little oil and salt.
Drain and keep aside once it is cooked.

Now in a saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add in the garlic,
and the green chillies, sauté until the garlic is slight brown.
Add in the sliced mushrooms and the vegetable broth.
Sauté until the mushroom is cooked.

Now sprinkle the all purpose flour and mix well with the mushrooms.
Keep stirring for about 5 minutes.
Now pour in the milk and stir well. See that no lumps are formed.
You can add 1 glass of water and keep stirring continuously.
Now add in the grated cheese and mix well.

When the all purpose flour is cooked and a creamy gravy is formed,
add in the pasta and mix well.
Add in the salt, pepper, oregano and mix it well.
Let the pasta get coated well with the gravy.
Remove and garnish with the cut parsley.
Serve it at once or the pasta will absorb the gravy
and will become too soft.

The other way of serving is to place the pasta in a serving plate.
Now pour the sauce over the pasta.

NOTE: You can add veges like carrots and French beans
If you like.
