tomato pasta - classic italian pasta with cheese.I did not add cheese here,here the Italian Parmesan cheese is used on top while serving.I already shared Indian style pastas of tow varieties like Masala pasta and paneer pasta.Check that too for easy pasta recipe ideas.
this is my first try on Italian style and i used farfelle pasta for the recipe.You can use any other pasta varieties for the recipe.this tastes so classy and i think it will goes well with parmesan cheese too.I want the plain one so i did not used cheese here.The flavor of dry herbs like basil and oregano makes it more aromatic and this is perfect for the season too.
