Vegetarian Pine Pasta
To be a wife of vegetarian husband, I always try to innovate some foods from non-veg cooking recipe. I tried to replace the meat which are required for the cooking with some vegetables. In some cases, this really work and the taste also not less delicious.
Pasta is our favorite meal at home, in the matter of fact, whenever I’m out of idea what to cook for the next day, I would decide to cook pasta and my hubby never complaint 
, not because I don’t like to use the chart for weekly menu, but in my home, this is quite difficult to apply.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup dry pine pasta
- 100 gr baby corns, finally chopped
- Half cup of sweet corn
- 100 gr carrot, finally chopped
- 2 pcs tomatoes, sliced to big pieces lengthwise
- 1 big onion, cut to big pieces lengthwise
- 1 capsicum, sliced lengthwise
- 3 tbs pasta or spaghetti sauce
- 4 tbs tomato sauce
- salt to taste
- 1/2 tsp chilly flake
- 1/4 tsp dry oregano
- 2 tbs cooking or olive oil
- 10 gr Cheddar Cheese - grated
- 1/4 cup of water
How to make:
- Boil the dry pasta in 2 liters of water and drain up
- Heat the oil in the pan
- Add the chopped carrot and baby corn, cook until soft
- Add the sweet corn, tomatoes, onion and capsicum, mix well for 2 minutes
- Add the spaghetti or pasta sauce, tomato sauce, salt, chilly flakes and oregano, mix well.
- Add water and mix well
- Add the grated cheddar cheese and mix well
- Add the pasta
- Now it is ready to be served
Another version which me and my hubby really like is to add more cheese… yummy!!
Put the above cooked pasta on the baking bowl, spread grated cheddar cheese and baked in the oven for 10 minutes before serving… hummm…. smell good and taste good!!
