Macroni Pasta 1/4 cup Oil 1 tsp Mustard Seeds 1/4 tsp Peanuts 2 tsp Curry leaves Few Paruppu podi 1 tsp Salt As needed Coconut 1-2 tblsp (Optional)
Cook the pasta in salt water till it becomes soft. Drain the water and run this through cold water. Keep it aside. Reserve 2 to 3 tblsp of water before draining the excess water.
In a pan add oil and throw in the mustard seeds and curry leaves. Add the peanuts and saute them in a low flame. Now add in the cooked pasta and add the paruppu podi. Add the reserved water which we have kept aside. No need to worry. The water will get absorbed and makes the pasta moist .
Gently mix well. If adding coconut add at this stage and mix well. Switch off the flame. Serve hot.
