This recipe is different than what I normally post. This is a easy cheat day dinner idea perfect for a cozy cold day. My room mate loves this recipe and I felt everyone should have this easy white sauce pasta for a quick and tasty meal.
Ingredients -
Handful of pasta - ( approx. 100 grams. )
2 tbsp of garlic
2 tbsp of butter
7 - 8 mushrooms sliced
1 cup of spinach
1/2 cup of milk
4 tbsp of all purpose flour
1/4 cup of cheese of your choice. This is about a handful and I normally use pepper jack but any kind will do the job.
Salt and pepper as per your taste.
Recipe
Cook your pasta as per the packet instructions. I normally dunk it in a pot of boiling water with salt and cook its done and drain and keep aside. Running it under cold water will get rid of any extra starch and it won't stick to each other.
In another pan, melt your butter and add your chopped garlic and add in the the mushrooms and cook the mushrooms and let the moisture evaporate from the mushroom. Add in the spinach and wait till it withers down. You can add in what ever veggies you have in this.
Once your veggies is soften and cooked, turn the heat down and add in the flour and mix well to get the raw smell off the flour and then add in the milk and mix well to avoid any clumps.
Add salt and pepper as per your taste and then bring the sauce to a boil and then add the pasta and cheese and mix well.
I used spaghetti but this will work with any kind of pasta or noodles too. Also, I made this for two servings, you can multiple accordingly and make as many servings as you want.
Serve it hot and enjoy your white sauce mushroom and spinach garlic pasta... :P
