spaghetti - hentam

There's two ways kitorang masak spaghetti at home.
1. Using Tomato Paste/Tomato Puree
2. Use Prego

For number 2, it's very simple.
Just simmer the sauce and add whatever it is you want in your gravy (i.e. beef chunks/chicken/mushroom/bell pepper/eggs).
Make sure you follow the order of placing ingredients with longer cooking time followed by those that needs little time to cook (i.e. mushroom).
And lastly, salt and pepper to taste.

As for the first one, there's additional steps to take.
Tumis these ingredients: Onion(diced), cumin, cinnamon, tomato paste.
When it smells good enough, add the meat/mutton.
Add generous amount of water, dependent on whether you want a light sauce to go with your spaghetti or a thick one!
Add the sediments, salt and pepper.
Let simmer till its smell/taste to your desire.

Hey, thats two recipes in one. Cool.
The pasta? Just cook it the way written on the pack. Add salt if you wanna die of high blood pressure.
Only joking! Do add considerate amount if it's to your taste.

I call the above, my hentam method. Just do whatever you like, so that your cooking will turn out however you like. Just don't burnt them off (your cookings). Ha! Enjoy!
