SPAGHETTI PASTA

With the simple ingredients, you can have a delicious meal on the tables in just a matter of minutes. It involves adding a few ingredients to your favourite spaghetti  available easily in your pantry. Toss it in with some  angel hair pasta which I love because it cooks fast. I prepared veg balls instead of meat balls with this spaghetti pasta , so I used very less spices for my pasta and added only pepper powder and salt in it with soy sauce. Toss it with and you are ready to eat. Serve it with as it is or with veg balls or meatballs and some crusty bread for a quick weeknight meal on a super busy day. This vegetable Noodle Stir fry is fast and healthy loaded with colourful vegetables. So give it  a try on busy weeknight or enjoy as a weekend one pot feast menu.

100 gms Spaghetti
½ Cup Cabbage, Julienned
