So, I was having some leftover fettuccine and angel hair pasta which I couldn't use individually as there wasn't enough quantity. Also had some left over veggies so what better than to put this all together and make one dish. It was delicious. spicy, tangy , had a bite to it and just good to eat. So, here it is

Left-over Veggie Stir Fry Pasta


MAKING

First , in a pan with boiling water and salt, cook the pasta as per box instructions. I cooked Fettuccine first as it needs more time to cook. Then added the Angel hair.

Drain the pasta, and add olive oil to it to keep it separated

Now in another frying pan, add 2 Tbsp Sesame/Gingelly oil. Once heated, add in the chopped ginger-garlic. chopped onions.Saute for a few seconds before adding in the Soy sauce, the Sriracha sauce. Saute it for a few seconds then add in the chopped green peppers and the tomatoes and red chilli flakes.

Cook for a couple of minutes before adding in the cooked pasta.

Mix it thoroughly so the pasta is well mixed with the sauce and veggies. Finally add the chopped cabbage and salt as required.Cook for an additional minute and that's it, take it off the stove and delicious stir fry veggie pasta is ready.

Serve it with some sriracha sauce or a dash of shredded cheese sprinkled on 

TIPS/VARIATIONS

Make sure you chop all the veggies and ginger-garlic in a julienne cut ( lengthwise thinly sliced)

I did not have carrots but you could add it as well

I added the cabbage right at the end before serving as then it wouldn't become soggy and still have that crunchy bite.

Since you add soy sauce, make sure to adjust salt quantity accordingly

I used the Gingelly Oil 

I also sprinkled some shredded Mexican 5 cheese on top of my stir fry and believe me, it was delicious
