Procedure:
- Pour some oil in a wok and fry the ginger and garlic paste till it changes color. Meanwhile, grind the chopped onions and tomatoes into a puree.
- Transfer the puree into the wok and fry for about 3 - 5 minutes till the mixture starts leaving out water. Add the seasonings, the oregano and other herbs.
- Warm the milk in the microwave for a minute or till it is slightly warm. Cut the cheese slices and add it to the milk.
- Add this milk-cheese mixture into the tomato puree mixture in the wok.
- Simmer for 5 minutes, you may also add some more milk if you feel it is too thick. It must have the consistency of condensed milk yet not too thick.
- Boil the pasta like you would normally do ( In warm water with salt and a drop of oil) and keep aside.
- Saute different vegetables with salt till it is cooked. Add this to the boiled pasta..
- When the pasta is ready to be eaten, dribble the sauce over the pasta-vegetable saute and have an awesome meal! You can sprinkle some grated cheese before you serve ( if you want to!)
Bless me as you eat! :D
