| Pasta from Del monte |
Italian food tour, learning from an Italian Nona… that was
the temptation! The chef in me was raring to prove herself. I had always fantasized
that I had something Italian in me. May be, ages ago, I had incarnated in a
picturesque Italian village…
I prodded the sleeping Italian part of my soul a hundred
times and still no recipe materialized. The nice little packet of pasta from Del
monte was used up in the experiments in search of that elusive dish that would
land me the most coveted prize in the competition. But the Italian food
memories embedded in my soul continued to sleep; even after receiving umpteen kicks!
Then today, I decided to try one last time before giving up.
And this is what I ended up with.
Pepper Carrot Macaroni

add the cooked macaroni to it. Sauté for a minute and pour in the boiled milk.

And it was so yummy that my son finished it off within no time.
