Spinch-Corn Pasta

Spinch-Corn Pasta - Rekha Vishwanath Nayak

IngredientsPasta - 2 cups (You can use any kind of Pasta. I used Bowtie pasta)
Spinach Puree - 2 cups (I blanched two bunches of spinach and blended it with little water to get a puree of thick consistency)
sweet corn - 1 cup
Onion - 1 medium
Garlic - 5-6 pods
Butter - 2-3 1-inch sized cubes
Italian Seasoning - 2-3 tsp
Red Chilli Flakes - 2 tsp
Olive Oil - 1/2 tbsp
Cheese - 1 cube(i used 2 tbsp Amul cheese spread here)
METHOD:-
Cook the pasta as per instructions in the packet. Strain and keep aside.
In a m/w safe bowl add sweet corn & 1 cube butter & m/w it for 3 mins.
Slice the onions and crush the garlic pods. If you have a garlic crusher, use that, else just finely mince it using the knife.
In a pan, heat olive oil and toss in the garlic and onions. Saute till they turn light brown.
Pour in the spinach puree and sweet corn & amul cheese spread & mix well.
Add salt, Italian seasoning and red chilli flakes. Keep the pan covered and allow the mixture to cook for about 1 minute.
Now, add the cooked pasta. Gently combine all the ingredients and allow to cook for a minute or two more on low flame.
Serve hot.
