Ultimate One Pot Pasta

<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Ads: 631975293 --> Pasta. The only word that evokes millions of emotions(apart from mother, of course.) Pasta comes in SO many different shapes(350 to be precise.) and can be cooked in a variety of ways. You have ala vodka, alfredo, with marinara, and so many more.

My memory of a biryani(veg and non-veg) goes back to my childhood when I was a lover of spicy food and rice(I STILL AM). I won't brag about my mother making the "best biryani in the world", but she was pretty good at it. I remember the smell of caramelized onions wafting from the kitchen and I would run to my mother and beg her for some of the onion and gulkand she put aside for garnishing. I would steal a few cubes of cooked paneer on my way out, making sure mum never knew. But she knew. And when the biryani was finaalyy served( the moment I wait for since waking up), everything about it seemed heavenly. The ...
