If you are in the mood for a light and summery pasta, which is as healthy as it is delicious, then look no further! Savour the delectable blend of fusilli pasta and sweet corn enhanced by aromatic fresh basil and the hint of garlic. This simple few ingredients pasta is fancy enough for guests and takes hardly any time to prepare.
Ingredients:
3 cups cooked fusilli pasta
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup sweet corn
1/2 cup capsicum cut in cubes
2 tbsps finely chopped fresh basil
2 tbsps finely chopped fresh parsley
4 tbsp olive oil or butter
Salt to taste
1/2 tsp fresh black pepper powder
3 tbsps parmesan cheese
Method: Drop fusilli pasta into salted boiling water. Let it cook till almost done and then drain and add a tbsp of oil to avoid the pasta sticking together. Keep aside. Chop onions, garlic and capsicum. Also chop parsley and basil.
Heat oil in a pan, add the onion and garlic. Saute till the onion turns translucent. Add the sweet corn and capsicum and fry lightly. Add the fusilli, parsley, basil, salt and pepper and mix. Add the cheese and close flame. Cover for couple of minutes to let all the flavours blend in. Serve hot.
In case you don't have fresh herbs you can use dried ones. If you want to make it a tad bit more spicy add chilli flakes.
