For the Pasta

200 g pasta

Water, as required

A small amount of white cooking oil

Salt, to taste

For the White Sauce

50 g butter

50 g all-purpose flour (maida)

500 g milk

Cheese, as required

For the Vegetables

1 onion

1 carrot

1 capsicum (bell pepper)

Chopped garlic

A small amount of white cooking oil

A little butter

Red chilli flakes

Oregano

Black pepper powder

Salt, to taste

For Garnishing

Red chilli flakes

Oregano

Grated cheese

🍝 Step 1: Boil the Pasta

First, heat enough water in a large pan.

Add a small amount of white cooking oil and salt according to taste.

Add 200 g pasta and cook it until it is about 85% cooked (al dente). Do not overcook the pasta.

Once cooked, drain the pasta and spread it out in a bowl or large plate to cool.

Important: Do not rinse the cooked pasta with cold water. This can affect its taste and texture.

🥛 Step 2: Prepare the White Sauce

Heat a pan and add 50 g butter.

Allow the butter to melt completely.

Then add 50 g all-purpose flour (maida) and mix thoroughly.

Cook the butter and flour mixture for about 5 minutes, stirring continuously.

Make sure the flour becomes smooth and does not form lumps.

Now gradually add 500 g milk.

First add half of the milk and mix well. Then add the remaining milk and continue stirring until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.

Finally, add cheese and cook for about 1 minute.

Turn off the heat.

Your smooth and creamy white sauce is now ready.

🥕 Step 3: Sauté the Vegetables

Heat a pan and add a small amount of white cooking oil along with a little butter.

Add cubed onion, carrot and capsicum.

Sauté the vegetables lightly. Do not overcook them.

Now add the chopped garlic and sauté it lightly.

Then add:

Red chilli flakes

Oregano

Black pepper powder

Salt

Mix everything well and cook for a short time.

Your flavorful sautéed vegetables are now ready.

Tip: Do not fry the vegetables too much. Lightly sautéed vegetables retain their texture and taste better in the pasta.

Also, don’t add the garlic right at the beginning to very hot oil, because it can burn quickly and spoil the flavor.

🍝 Step 4: Combine Everything

Now take the pan containing the prepared white sauce.

Add the boiled pasta to the sauce.

Then add the sautéed vegetables.

Mix everything together thoroughly so that the creamy white sauce coats the pasta and vegetables evenly.

Finally, add some red chilli flakes, oregano and grated cheese on top.

Mix everything well and cook for a short time.

Your delicious, creamy and cheesy White Sauce Pasta with Vegetables is ready! 😋🧀🍝

⭐ Important Tips

Do not rinse the pasta with cold water after boiling. This can affect its taste and texture.

Do not over-fry the vegetables. Lightly sauté them to retain their natural texture and flavor.

Do not add garlic to very hot oil at the beginning. It can burn quickly and make the pasta taste bitter.

While making the white sauce, make sure the butter and flour are mixed smoothly. Otherwise, the sauce may become grainy or lumpy.

 

Add the milk gradually while stirring continuously. This helps create a smooth, lump-free white sauce.
