Macaroni and Makhani Recipe | Subz Makhani Mac Recipe | Vegetable Macaroni in Makhani Sauce | Masterchefmom's Fusion Recipe

Hi Supermoms,

I make pasta once every two weeks . I love to experiment with new flavours each time. 

When I am making pasta or pizza , I have a mantra - " To make it Tasty and wholesome" . I am sure you would  do the same. 

Pasta is not a great choice as a 'Family' dinner, as my better half does not like it at all. But I get request from kids to make it especially during weekends. So, I try very hard to please my husband  by adding flavours that is closer to home . At the same time , making it appealing to the younger ones at home. 

This pasta recipe has it all. Plenty of vegetables, Indian Curry taste and low on cheese or butter. If you are vegan, you can skip the butter or ghee and use oil of your choice. You can also use gluten free pasta . So, this recipe can be made gluten free and vegan too. 

The Subz Makhani Mac was finger licking good. Minimum ingredients but maximum taste.
