Microwave Pasta

Till now I have only made pasta in the traditional way, by cooking it in boiling water on the stove. But this is an easy less messy job of making pasta and the taste also is pretty much the same. So try this , save time!

Method

Get a microwave safe bowl and add 1 cup of pasta in it.
Add water to the bowl so that pasta is a couple of inches deep. Remember that the pasta will grow in size, so be sure to have enough water. You can always drain out the extra if you add too much.
Place the bowl on top of a plate and put it in the microwave just in case any water spills over.
Take the suggested cooking time from the pasta box and add 3-4 minutes. Check on the pasta when it's done and sample a piece or two.
If the pasta is at desired doneness, strain the pasta over the sink. If it’s not at desired doneness just put in the microwave for a few more minutes.
Place the pasta on a plate or in a bowl and add whatever sauce you would like. Enjoy!
