Hello Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spagetti is one of my favourite and i love to eat spagetti. I first tasted spagetti in Paris and Pizza too when i visited my uncle's place.I tasted in Lourdes which is a fantastic place to see and it has a beautiful church and a elegant history behind that.You can read the same in google.And according to me each person should visit Paris which is a heaven to live in.
Spagetti actually originated from Italy but now in India everyone started to make one. My husband also loves but he does not like hard cheese in this but i love it.So this spagetti which i made is with Parmesan Cheese.
Parmesan cheese is a hard cheese category and it can be used in spagetti,soups etc.I have tasted this parmesan cheese in a snack flavour also. And i love Auroville Cheese which is made freshly and hope you know about Auroville.It is a very beautiful place and me and my husband love to go for a drive there whenever we go to Pondicherry.You will get Auroville cheese everywhere but in selected stores only.
Mushrooms are the most protein rich food available and here i have used button mushrooms from Farm fresh. It is very good for people who lack Vitamin D3.Mushrooms have various vitamins like Thiamine,Riboflavin, Niacin,Vitamin C etc.
This is a small introduction about my Post title and hope you have got an idea of my recipe now.
And i want to share a few things about Basil leaves which i am adding in my recipe.
Basil leaves is the most sought ingredient in spagetti. Basil leaves must be added at the last moment as it will give a sour flavour if you cook it for a long time. Basil leaves also have many vitamins and i recently read an article that Basil leaves are potential treaters for Cancer. Nowadays in India itself, people have started growing herbs in their houses like Basil leaves, Rosemary,Dill etc.

2.)Now take the spagetti as required.I cooked to serve two people.I used Grani Italiani,Seliezione
black packet.You can use any spagetti of your choice.
3.)Now add two drops of ghee in the boiling water so that the spagetti comes out non-sticky and very
smoothly.
Just immerse the stick and when it starts to boil further, it will get whirled and immersed by itself.
5.)When the spagetti gets immersed fully, do not lift it with a single spoon or any cutlery for that
matter. Take two normal spoons and take as you pick up something and do not break any of the
sticks at this stage.
6.)Meanwhile, you can make the mushrooms ready. The spagetti will take some 12-15 mins to cook, until you can start cooking the mushrooms.
7.)Wash the mushrooms in clean running water.You can show mushrooms in the running water
because you will have small small black dots in the mushrooms which will go away easily when
you show in the running water.Because when you try to take it in hands without water, the outer
skins of mushrooms will come out. So try this way.
8.)And finally wash the mushrooms in salt water and drain them off. Please do not put lot of salt as
it will catch in the mushrooms. So just add some salt and wash them immediately.Do not soak and
keep them.
9.)Now after cleaning cut the mushrooms into two pieces.
10.)Now heat a kadai and add half a teaspoon of butter(normal big spoon).
11.)After the butter melts, saute the mushrooms, and fry till it becomes soft and turns little golden
brown.
12.)Generally when i use mushrooms in spagetti, i do not add salt to mushrooms seperately.So just
saute the mushrooms and leave.
13.)Now the mushrooms are ready.And let's see the spagetti now.
14.)Spagetti will immerse fully by itself when it is fully cooked and you can check with a knife
to confirm whether it has been cooked or not. If you are able to cut a stick, then it is cooked or
allow it to boil for some more time.
15.)After the spagetti is cooked, drain it and take off the excess water in it.
16.)Now heat the kadai again and pour a spoon of olive oil.(You can add olive oil at the end for
dressing also).
17.)After the olive oil is hot, saute the spagetti and put the mushrooms also.
18.)Now add all the spices mentioned above(from 5 to 15 in the ingredients list) in the said quantity
and mix them well with the spagetti and mushrooms.
19.)Now add the required salt for the whole recipe.(Some add bits of salt everywhere in the recipe but
i add only at the last which i feel is safe).
20.)I have chosen PARMESAN CHEESE here which is actually a hard cheese as i mentioned before.
So you can grate this cheese and top it on the spagetti.
21.)So grate this cheese and make a topping on your spagetti.But i love this cheese to be melted but
the only problem is this cheese when melted becomes very hard if you do not eat immediately.
And it will be little bit salty too.So if you want you grate it or eat like me but mostly this cheese
will only be grated but what to do taste differs from each person.
22.)If you melt it please eat it immediately, as the cheese will turn harder the next second.
23.)Top the cheese on the spagetti and enjoy your meal with sauce of your choice.
Bon appetit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
