Ingredients Serving: 2

  1. Penne pasta - 1 cup
  2. Maida - 1 tablespoon (heaped)
  3. Milk - 2 cups
  4. Cheese slices - 2
  5. Mixed herbs - 1 tablespoon
  6. Salt - to taste
  7. Butter - 1 tablespoon
  8. Water - enough to boil

Instructions

  1. Pour water into a pan and bring it to a rolling boil. Add little oil to the boiling water and add in the pasta. The boiling water bubbles helps the pasta to stay separated from one another. The pasta should be cooked to "Al Dente" - firm .
  2. Take a bite from the cooking pasta and check. If you feel it is firm to bite and yet cooked, cook no further. Switch off the heat. Filter the pasta through a colander and wash it well with cold running water (this is to prevent the pasta to stick).
  3. Now, in a pan add the butter and melt.
  4. Now add the maida and whisk. Once you add maida, you will see the maida bubble up with the butter.
  5. If you achieve this, then rest assured that the maida will not form lumps at all. So this is the most important step in white sauce.
  6. While whisking the maida, ghee mixture, slowly add the milk and keep whisking. The milk will start to thicken up now. The milk will start bubbling on sides, add salt and cheese. Let the cheese completely melt.
  7. Now, add the cooked pasta and the mixed herbs. Give a final mix, so that the pasta and the sauce mix to become homogeneous. Your pasta is ready and serve hot!!
