Notes
- Cooking – Don’t boil it too long. It should be soft but still hold the shape. If it gets too soft, it will break and turn sticky.
- Use fresh mushroom – Clean them nicely and slice thin so it cooks evenly. Old mushrooms won’t taste good and gets slimy.
- Veggies – You can mix in corn, baby spinach, peas or even carrot if you like. Makes it colorful and more healthy too.
- Keep stirring – When you add milk and cheese, stir non-stop. If not, it may form lumps and spoil the texture.
- Cheese – If making for children, just put little extra cheese. It makes the pasta more rich and creamy.
- Sautéing – Just sauté for few minutes. It should turn soft but not too mushy. Should have little bite when you eat.
- Serve it hot – Don’t wait too long after cooking. Pasta taste best when it's hot and fresh. If you keep, it may get dry.
