Instructions
-
Cook the Spaghetti:
- In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add the spaghetti pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente (usually around 8-10 minutes). Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside.

-
Prepare the Vegetable Sauce:
- In the same saucepan, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sautรฉ it until it turns golden brown and slightly caramelized, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and continue to sautรฉ until the tomatoes soften and break down into a sauce-like consistency, about 4-5 minutes.
- Stir in the julienned green bell pepper and sliced baby corn. Cook for another 7-10 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften and meld with the tomato base.
-
Add the Flavorings:
- Add the ginger garlic paste to the vegetable mixture, stirring well to combine. Let it cook for 2 minutes to infuse the flavors.
- Pour in the green chili sauce, roasted tomato pasta sauce, and season with red chili flakes and Italian seasoning. Mix everything together, allowing the sauce to come to a gentle simmer. Let the mixture cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
