Tips
1.Macaroni:I have used Macaroni Pasta. You could use Penne Pasta or any other Pasta. Macaroni should be cooked to 90% and cooled. The rest will get cooked in the spices.
2.Vegetables: If you like you could add coloured Capsicum, Sweet Corn, Mushrooms, grated Paneer etc. I have used frozen peas so I have added the Peas after the Macaroni. If you are using fresh Green Peas, then add them after the Onions are cooked. And add Tomato only after the Peas are cooked. The rest of the recipe is the same.
3.Sauces:I have not used any Sauce but made a tasty Macaroni. In case you have them handy, you could use Tomato Ketchup, Pizza Sauce and Chilli Flakes.
