Pasta with homemade tomato sauce

I recently prepared Matar Paneer and I was wondering how pasta would taste with its sauce(gravy). So waiting for Pasta night and tried this combination and to my surprise it tasted really good. My husband loved the taste and I was very happy that I took a shot at this.



It is very simple, the gravy/sauce preparation is as follows,

Ingredients:

1/2 cup onions, finely chopped
3/4 cup of tomatoes, fine chopped
1/2 tbspn of cashews
1 tbspn of oil
Salt to taste
2 finely chopped green chillies
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp red chili powder

Method:

In a pan, add 1 tbspn of oil. Add the cashews and fry them till light brown.

Now add the chopped onions, salt and saute them till they are light brown.

Now add the green chilies, tomatoes and mix well. cook till the tomatoes are mashed.

Allow the mixture to cool. Grind it to a thick puree with adding very little water.

In the same pan, add the puree and 1/4 cup of water. Bring it to a boil.

Add coriander powder, cumin powder,chili powder and mix well.

Cook it in Sim flame for 10 minutes.

Now Prepare the Pasta as given by the manufacturer.

Mix Pasta with this sauce and serve hot!

If you want you can cook some vegetables separately and mix it with the sauce so that we get some crunchy effect too.
