How to make Schezwan Fusilli Pasta?
Cooking can get innovative specially when you have limited ingredients and when your taste buds crave for something yummmmy….
Pasta is normally used in preparing Italian dishes which is mostly prepared in creamy sauce, white sauce or red sauce and even cold salads. Getting more innovative, I have prepared Schezwan Fusilli Pasta tossing together vegetables and sauces used in Chinese and Indo Chinese style of cooking. Fusilli is the main ingredient, you can use any kind of pasta that’s stored at home. With a plate so colourful, the kids surely cannot say No!! One can get more creative and use as many veggies of their choice. An easy and a quick recipe that can be served as main dish or even a side dish.
