ONE Pot Pesto Pasta - Quick and Easy
- ½ packet - Spaghetti or any pasta of your choice
- 1 - Onion, medium sized , chopped
- 6 cloves - Garlic
- 6 to 7 - Sun-dried tomatoes (optional)
- ¼ cup - Extra virgin olive oil
- ½ cup - Basil pesto sauce
- 1 tsp - Chilly flakes
- 6 to 7 - Walnuts
- ¼ cup - Parmesan shavings
- Few fresh basil leaves for garnishing
- 4 cups of water
- In a heavy bottom pan, take spaghetti, half the olive oil, chopped onions, garlic and water.
- Cover the lid and let the spaghetti cook. Stir it once or twice so that the spaghetti doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
- This should take 10 to 15 mins.
- Once the spaghetti is cooked and the water has been soaked completely, switch off the flame.
- Add pesto, shredded sun-dried tomatoes, chilly flakes, parmesan cheese, olive oil and give it a good mix.
- Check for salt and add if it requires more. Do not add it before as pesto and parmesan cheese has salt in it. Garnish it with some fresh basil leaves.
- Serve it hot along with some garlic bread.
