Penne Rigate with Creamy Mushroom Sauce

-

 Pasta is Italian staple food like our rice and roti. It is served with different sauces like white sauce, marinara sauce, cheese sauce and many more. 

Creamy mushroom sauce is my own variation of the white sauce. I have also added vegetables to make it more healthy.

Step by step method :

Cook pasta as per info on the packet. Drain n keep aside. (Don’t over cook it)

                     

In a pan, heat oil n half of d butter. Add garlic n sauté for a minute. Now add onions n saute till translucent.Add mushrooms n fry til golden brown. (Make sure no water content remains in mushroom). Once done keep it aside.


Now in the same pan add the remaining butter. Add corn flour n fry for a minute. Add 1 cup of water lil by lil so that no lumps are formed. Mix well. Add milk and bring this sauce to boil. (The sauce should be of creamy consistency)


Once done, add sauted mushrooms, bell peppers, cabbage and mix well. Now add salt, white pepper powder and basil. Mix well n bring to boil.


Add cooked pasta and gently toss it in the sauce for 2-3 minutes. Switch off d flame.


Now add grated cheese n serve hot.

Chicken Uruval or Urval is a famous and delicious Mangalorean dish. It is very simple to prepare, yet very rich in taste. It is a spicy, tangy and very flavorful dish mostly served as an appetizer. This dish has very less ingredients. The main taste of this dish is from the masala paste prepared using red chillies, cashewnuts and few whole spices. Paste should be fried properly in butter. I just marinated the chicken and cooked with the paste. But in restaurants they deep fry the chicken pieces.
