Whenever I am home alone; my dinner becomes a quick affair. It's not that our dinner is an elaborate 3 course meal everyday. But being alone doesn't make me want to spend much time in the kitchen. Hence tonight its my real quick fix Pasta Salad for dinner.
How I made it :
Boil the fusilli pasta in salt water for 7-8 minutes. ( Any pasta can be used. I had fusilli so I used that) Don't over boil or else the pasta will be soggy.
Let it cool completely.
Cut one Red bell pepper, One tomato and One cucumber into cubes.
Mix with the Fusilli. Sprinkle some freshly chopped coriander over it.
The Dressing :
This I consider to be the real game changer in this super simple pasta salad.
Mix one tea spoon of sugar into 3 table spoons of white vinegar.
Once the sugar gets dissolved completely, add a pinch of salt. Salt can be adjusted as per your taste.
Now add 3 table spoons of Olive oil, dry oregano and black pepper powder / or freshly crushed black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly.
Pour this dressing into the salad and toss well.
Taaa daaa simple quick pasta salad is ready.
It is the sweetness of sugar against the sourness of Vinegar and a pinch of salt that I love in this salad dressing.
