White Sauce Pasta is one of the most popular pasta varieties in India, Red sauce pasta is the first popular pasta variety, which is also called tomato pasta, it is spicy and tangy. White sauce pasta is entirely different from red sauce pasta, It is creamy and rich in taste. Both pasta varieties are inspired by Italian cuisine. White sauce is also called Bechamel sauce.
White sauce pasta is yummy breakfast, lunch, and dinner, kids love this and enjoy it when it is in the lunch box. It is an awesome dish when you are bored with regular lunch and dinner, it is so simple to prepare it, cook pasta, stirfry veggies and make a fresh white sauce, mix everything, that’s it. How is easy it is to prepare, I am damn sure the taste will attract everyone in the home. Though it is not a spicy dish, I have added chilli flakes (which were not included in the original recipe), to satisfy the Indian taste buds.
Notes
- While preparing white sauce pasta, use penne pasta, it is the best with white sauce, apart from that you can use macaroni, shells, or rigatoni, other pasta varieties are not suitable with white sauce.
- Once the white sauce pasta is cool down, it becomes thick, you can add warm milk to adjust consistency.
- You can add any of your favourite veggies, use finely chopped vegetables to get cooked quickly.
- You can sprinkle some shredded cheese while serving, to make it cheesy.
- Chilli flakes are optional, you can skip them if you prepare them for kids.
