Sometimes we are not able to figure out simple things or even if we are doing all correct something goes wrong and we are not able to make some recipes. I am sharing you one of them when I started cooking and was struggling to perfectly boil noodles.
Sometimes we over boil noodles or sometimes they are not properly cooked. So I am sharing you simple technique by which your noodles will be boiled perfectly.
To boil noodles/spaghetti you will need :-
1 handful bunch of noodles
1 tablespoon olive oil/cooking oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
4-5 cups of water
4-5 cups of ice/cold water (optional)
Take a open pot and add water to it and allow it to boil on stove. When it is boiling add noodles, olive oil and salt to it. Do not cover it with lid. When it gets soft little bit then stir them very gently. If required add one more cup of water. It will take almost 12-15 minutes to boil at medium temperature. Check carefully by breaking a little piece of noodles to see weather it is cooked properly. If they are overcooked they will loose their texture. So do not boil them too much. Take them out of flame and drain all the water and put noodles in strainer so no water remains in it. Put this strainer in pot filled with ice or run cold water on noodles and then drain all water and use them.
Use them while making noodles in red/white sauce, even with pesto of your choice. I use to make bake dish and hakka noodles.
