Microwave Mug Pasta
Skip the stovetop and make pasta in a microwave! Microwave Mug Pasta is one of my favourite one-pot recipes for busy weekdays. You don’t have to bother about boiling pasta separately on a stovetop or preparing the sauce. All you have to do is dump it all in a mug and hit the microwave button. And trust me it tastes delicious and so much better than the packaged instant pasta with a preservative-loaded tastemaker.
How To Make Mug Pasta
Step 1) Add pasta, water, garlic, salt, and olive to a mug. Stir to combine (image 1). Microwave at full power for 5 minutes. Stir after 2 ½ minutes to avoid lump formation (image 2).

Step 2) Once pasta is cooked, add tomato sauce, cherry tomato, milk, seasoning, and cheese, and stir to combine to coat each piece of pasta with sauce (images 4 & 5). Step 3) Microwave once again for 2 minutes. By now cheese will melt, the sauce is thick and creamy, and the pasta is ready to eat. Garnish with olives and fresh herbs. follow us on Youtube and Instagram for video recipes.
