Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 onion minced
  • 1/2 packet frozen mixed vegetables as much as you like, thawed
  • 1 tbsp mixed Italian seasoning oregano, basil, thyme, parsley, rosemary
  • 1 tsp paprika powder
  • 3 to matoes pureed
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 1/2 cup water
  • 3 cups pasta I used oats pasta
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Coriander leaves for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a pressure cooker. I used a 4 ltr cooker.
  • Fry the garlic till aromatic.
  • Add the onions and fry till wilted.
  • Add the mixed vegetables and saute.
  • Now add in the rest of the ingredients and give a good mix.
  • Close the lid and keep the cooker on medium flame. Cook till one whistle and switch off. (refer to points)
  • Allow the steam to go by itself.
  • Open, give a quick mix and serve hot garnished with coriander leaves.

Notes

I allowed a whistle for oats pasta. If you are using normal pasta, check labels on how much time it takes to cook, and if it shows it cooks in 5-7 minutes, switch off the cooker when the "shh" sound comes.
