NO CHEESE MACARONI


Macaroni without cheese…… does not sound normal? This macaroni tastes yummy without the cheese. It is not essential to have cheese in each and every macaroni dish. I have prepared this dish several times for my kid`s tiffin box. They have never missed the cheese in it. Their friends also enjoy it equally.

This is a simple, easy-to-make recipe. The just correct balance of salt and pepper is needed.

Recipe for No Cheese Macaroni


Ingredients


  • 100 gms macaroni
  • ½ cup onions (finely chopped)
  • 1 cup tomatoes (finely chopped)
  • 8 cloves garlic (crushed)
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • ½ tsp black pepper (crushed)
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • Salt to taste


How to make


Add the macaroni to 800ml of boiling water. Add a little salt to it.

Once the macaroni is almost done drain the excess water. Add one tablespoon of oil to macaroni and toss so that macaroni gets evenly coated with it and prevents it from sticking to each other.

Melt the butter in a pan. Add oil to it.

Add garlic to the hot oil followed by onions and tomatoes. Saute for a minute.

When the tomatoes become soft add salt, pepper and oregano to it and mix well.

Add the macaroni and mix well.

Stir for two minutes and remove from heat.

Tips


  • Macaroni should not be fully cooked in boiling water as it continues to cook even after the water is drained from it.
  • This recipe doesn`t require any baking as we are not using any cheese in it.
  • Capsicum can be added to give more colour to the dish. It should be added only towards the end to retain its fresh colour.
