Easy Cheesy Rigatoni pasta in Basil Pesto Sauce
The Pasta recipes with sauce can make quickly and very easy to cook for any time. Mostly, i don't use sauces for my Pasta recipes cook only with veggies n egg it gives fresh flavour and good taste. My Hubby like the Basil Pesto sauce flavour, sometimes i use this sauce with linguine this time used for Rigatoni and added little bit of creamy white sauce came out very good and easy to cook for quick dinner sure kids will love it. We enjoyed this Basil Pesto pasta with a bowl of soup with Ciabatta rolls tasted very good for our dinner.
Ingredients:
1.Uncooked Rigatoni - half package
2.Basil Pesto sauce - 2 tbsp
3.Butter or Margerine - 1tbsp
4.Cake flour or Maida - 1 tbsp
5.Parmesan Cheese Shavings - 3 tbsp
6.Milk - 1/2 cup
7.Salt n Pepper for seasoning
Preparation:
1.Cook the Rigatoni according to package instructions. After it got cooked drain in collander and keep it aside.
2.Heat the butter or margerine in pot, add the cake flour stir it well cook in medium fire. After 5 mts of stirring, take off the pot from the fire add milk to the mixture mix it well till it combines.
3.Add the cheese shavings n keep it in fire for 5 mts.

ReplyDeleteசெம டேஸ்ட்டா இருக்கும் போல.....
ReplyDeleteI'm doin good Sathya. How have u been? Ok, if u don't use pesto often, then it makes sense in buyin a sauce. I prepare and cook it with pasta the same day, if anythin is remamining, will keep it in the fridge and use it , within a day or 2. Was just curious to know, how differently u would prepare from that of mine. So, that i can try ur version too sometime. Coz, I love to experiment and cook with variations like sometimes, i use, mint, or parsley, or basil, or even tried it with coriander...
ReplyDeleteThe colour and sauce of the dish looks so delicious,saucy:-)
ReplyDeleteGood recipes...Do you ever cook for yourself or just for the joy of cooking or is it all centered around your husbands tastebuds?
ReplyDeleteDear Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteThis blog idea came from my Husband and since the time we got married my Hubby n myself did lot of different kinds of cooking and he inspires me. So, I dedicate most of my cooking to my Beloved Hubby.
I like Fish n my Hubby doesn't soon i will be posting Fish recipes.
Hope this answers your question.
