Notes
- Pasta to choose - You can choose any small pasta variety which will suit best. Macaroni is recommended for this recipe.
- Cheese to use - You can use parmesan cheese or processed cheese cubes. I used processed cheese cut into small cubes.
- Seasoning - I have used dried mixed herbs and pepper powder, you can use fresh herbs like rosemary, basil leaves etc.
- Spices - I have used red chilli powder, garam masala powder and pepper powder. You can add chilli flakes too.
- Flour - I have white flour but wheat flour works fine too. Do not add more as it may give a after taste.
