Make a one pot pasta with me. This recipe got me through lockdown in 2020, I would add anything and everything I had in my fridge and it would turn out different every time!

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g pasta I use Vetta penne
  • 2/3 cup vegetable stock
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 100 g veggies of choice I usually use broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, spinach
  • 15 g Parmesan cheese
  • 10 g butter
  • 1 tbsp chilli flakes
  • 1 tsp garlic
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 1 tsp chilli oil

Equipment

  • Knife
  • Pot
  • Chopping Board

Method
 

  1. Cut up all your vegetables, I like to get everything ready before I start any cooking so I don’t get stressed trying to time everything right.
  2. If using a block of cheese, grate your cheese, otherwise skip this step.
  3. Add everything to a pot that is big enough to hold approx. 4 cups of water and make sure it has a lid!
  4. I add pasta then vegetables then all the spices then finally I add stock and milk.
  5. Mix everything around and ensure all the pasta is covered with the liquid.
  6. Turn the heat on to medium high.
  7. Cover and wait till it boils (usually around 3-5 minutes).
  8. Once the ‘sauce’ comes up to boil, turn the heat down slightly.
  9. If the sauce becomes too dry add more water bit by bit until the pasta is cooked.
  10. Once the pasta is cooked and the sauce has cooked down, add in your cheese.
  11. Enjoy!
