This recipe is adapted from Gay's blog: A Scientist in the Kitchen. I have written the changes I made in brackets.
Cuisine: Filipino
Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • meat broth-chicken, beef, pork (I used a can of vegetable broth)
  • elbow macaroni (I used 4 sheets of lasagna broken into small pieces)
  • chopped vegetables- carrots, cabbage, mushroom, asparagus… anything goes ( I used mushrooms and few mixed frozen vegetables)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • a cup of milk ( I used ¼ cup of milk)
  • Herbs- oregano, basil and celery salt
Instructions
  1. In a saucepan, heat a little oil. Add the mushrooms and stir fry on high. When soft, add the broth and bring to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni (other pasta shapes will do like farfalle, rigatoni and penne – but this would not really be a Filipino dish). Add dried herbs such as oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary).
  2. The elbow macaroni is cooked till al dente. Just taste the macaroni a few minutes after boiling. When macaroni is almost done, added the chopped vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Turn off fire and add the milk.
