Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pakistani Style Curry Pasta.
Step 1
To start, grab a small skillet and place it over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the chickpea flour and toast it, stirring frequently until it takes on a slightly darker color and releases a delightful aroma—this should take about five minutes.
Step 3
Once it’s ready, remove it from the heat and let it cool in a bowl.
Step 4
Next, take a nonstick skillet and heat it over medium-high heat.
Step 5
Toss in the diced red bell peppers and curry leaves, sautéing them for about two minutes while stirring constantly to bring out their flavors.
Step 6
Now, it’s time to add the cubed chicken.
Step 7
Cook it until it’s no longer pink, which should take around five minutes.
Step 8
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and let it fry for an additional thirty seconds, allowing those wonderful flavors to meld together.
Step 9
In a separate bowl, mix together the turmeric, hot paprika, and your toasted chickpea flour.
Step 10
Sprinkle this vibrant spice blend over the chicken, stirring constantly for about two minutes.
Step 11
To keep everything from sticking, add a quarter cup of water.
Step 12
Now, dissolve the coconut milk powder in one cup of water and pour it over the chicken mixture.
Step 13
Lower the heat and stir occasionally while you prepare the pasta.
Step 14
In a large pot, bring well-salted water to a rolling boil.
Step 15
Add the spaghetti and cook it uncovered, stirring occasionally until it reaches that perfect al dente texture—this should take about twelve minutes.
Step 16
Once done, drain the pasta in a colander.
Step 17
Now, it’s time to bring it all together! Transfer the hot spaghetti to a serving bowl and generously pour the chicken curry mixture over it.
Step 18
For the finishing touch, garnish with sliced green chilies, chopped cilantro, and fresh lemon slices.
Step 19
Serve it up and enjoy a delicious meal that’s bursting with flavor!.
