Today I have made macaroni with potatoes in the tomato gravy.
Ingredients:
Macaroni ... 1 cup
Potatoes .... 3-4 ( cut into cubes)
Tomatoes .. 2 large or 3 medium
Ginger ..... 1 tsp (grtaed)
Garlic ..... 1 tsp (optional)
Tomato puree .. 3-4 tbsps
Cumin seeds ...... 1 tbsp
Turmeric powder ... 1/4 tsp
Coriander powder .. 1 tsp
Cumin powder ....... 1 tsp
Red chilli powder .... 1/2 tsp
Salt ....... to taste
Oil ....... as needed
Coriander leaves ... handful
Method:
Boil water in a pan adding salt and a tbsp. of oil. Tip in the macaroni. After 2-3 boils switch off the gas and cover the pan with a lid for 4-5 minutes.The macaroni would be cooked and doubled in size. Drain the water and set it aside. To avoid sticking I add a half a tbsp of oil and stir them carefully.

DeleteI like the idea of adding macaroni to the potato subzi. It's a meal on its own.
