Though I am an ardent fan of Indian cuisine and can eat day after day through out, I like to explore and enjoy food from world wide.When it comes to international cuisine Italian definitely has a special place.Who can say to no to delicious pizzas,pastas and lip smacking desserts.Now coming to pizzas and pastas,I like to try different kind of pizzas at different outlets but when it comes to pasta I always prefer home made.This is because I add as much vegetables as possible to my sauce breaking all the rules :)
The other day I made spaghetti with vegetable sauce for dinner with loads of vegetables,it was so yummy and comforting.A very simple recipe to make with minimum ingredients.
