Instructions

Boil the dry pasta in water as per the instructions in the pack. Add 1tbsp olive oil and salt into the water and mix thoroughly. I boiled for 8 minutes. Strain the pasta and keep aside.
While water is boiling, chop up all the veggies and keep all the ingredients ready.
Heat a heavy pan in medium heat with 1 tbsp olive oil. Add minced garlic. Sauté for a minute.
Add vegetables, chilli flakes, salt, ground black pepper and cook the veggies. Ensure the veggies are crunchy. Finally add pasta sauce
Once the veggies are cooked (it took about 6 minutes), add the cooked pasta. Taste for salt and spice level. Adjust as per your preference.
Add heavy cream and mix gently. Heat for 2 minutes to incorporate everything together.
Switch off flame and serve with warm toasted garlic bread. Enjoy!
