The soup and pasta post

After weeks of pleading, I convinced my flatmates to let me cook chicken soup and pasta for dinner. I don't know what they feared. You see, they have never tasted my cooking before. And our last joint attempt at making simple fried noodles turned out to be a mishap, mishap being a mild word for it.

So yesterday, I boiled some chicken, carrot and an onion together, added salt, pepper, tomato sauce, butter and egg white to it, took out the chicken and shredded it, put back some of the shredded chicken and voila, our chicken clear soup with egg drop was ready.

The soup vanished within minutes of its preparation (since everybody went 'Slurp, slurp, slurp') and it was time to create the pasta. The pasta was boiled in salt water till Al Dente as my mom has taught me. The white sauce was concocted by thoroughly mixing milk, flour, salt, pepper, butter on a hot pan. Chopped tomatoes, carrot, broccoli and the shredded boiled chicken were fried in butter. Tomato sauce, salt, pepper, white sauce, pasta and some cheese slices were added and mixed well. After few minutes of cooking, Chicken Pasta with Broccoli and Carrot was ready to be served.
