Spicy Garlic Mushroom Spaghetti! Finally, something different : )
This is a new recipe I found on the Internet and thought of giving it a try since it is quite easy. So here goes...
First, fry some garlic, onion, dried chilli and mushroom in a pan with some cooking oil. For budgetary experimental purposes, I bought sliced mushroom in a tin. Hahahahahah! Plus, this can save some slicing time for me too! Once the onion & garlic are fragrant, pour in carrots and other vegetables that you'd like it in your sauce. Celery and olives should taste great and add colour in it as well.
While frying these ingredients, remember to boil the spaghetti too!
After frying for about 5 minutes, pour a tin of chopped tomatoes and give it a good mix. Add in some herbs such as parsley or... mixed herbs. However, I'm out of mixed herbs so I used basil instead : P Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Let the sauce simmer in low or medium heat until the sauce has been reduced and thicken. Pour in the drained spaghetti and give it a good toss!
Done!

"Fusiony Asian Twist"? o.O!!!
Well, I think it turned out quite nice. Wish there were more mushroom and more of it! Hehehehe.

Do you coat your cooked spaggethi with oil before mixing with sauce?
ReplyDeleteNope, i didn't. The spaghetti was poured into sauce once i drained it.
ReplyDeleteGood. Cos if you coat it, the sauce won't stick. Save a cup of the cooking water in case your spaghetti too dry, add a bit of the water. ;)
