Mr.A likes anything to be spicy and he is against anything tangy except his mom's signature recipe - Thakkali Thokku. This recipe is a twisted version of Sharmi's Tomato Pasta. The twist being I added garam masala to make it Desi style. We loved the tangy spicy sauce and I was awed to see Mr.A cleaning his plate in mins.

How I Made it:Chop the onions very finely. Grind the ingredients mentioned under 'to grind' into a smooth paste without adding water.
Bring enough water so that the macaroni sinks in and there is excess water. Add salt and 1 tsp of oil when boiling.
Once the water has come to a boil, add the macaroni. Stir gently (occasionally) to prevent the macaroni from sticking to the pan.
Cook for 10mins or until the macaroni is soft yet firm enough to bite. Do not overcook it. It should not become mushy.
Strain water and slide it into cold water. This will prevent the macaroni from cooking further. Keep aside.
Heat oil in a pan, add the onions and fry till slightly browned.
Then add in the ground paste and fry till the raw smell of tomatoes and garlic goes off.
Now add the tomato sauce, garam masala, pepper and salt and combine well.
Add the cooked macaroni and mix gently till the sauce coats the macaroni evenly.
Sprinkle grated cheese and serve hot.
We washed this yummy mac down with a simple Mango lassi.
With Love,
