White Sauce Pasta Recipe In Hindi (हिन्दी में पढ़े)
White Sauce Pasta Recipe In Gujarati (ગુજરાતી માં વાંચો)
Ingredients for Pasta
3/4 cup Penne Pasta or any Pasta
1/2 teaspoon Salt
4-5 cups Water
For Veggies:
1/2 teaspoon Oil
1/4 cup chopped Carrot
1/4 cup chopped Green Capsicum
1/4 cup chopped Red Capsicum
1/4 cup chopped Broccoli
Salt to taste
For White Sauce:
1½ tablespoons Butter
1 teaspoon finely chopped Garlic, optional
1½ tablespoons Maida (all purpose flour)
1½ cups Milk (250 ml)
1/4 teaspoon dried Oregano, optional (or pizza seasonings)
1/4 teaspoon Red Chilli Flakes
A pinch of Black Pepper Powder (or crushed pepper)
Salt to taste
Note:
  • We have used whole wheat pasta to make White Pasta even healthier and kid friendly. However, you can use any type of pasta, either white pasta or whole wheat pasta per your preference.
Directions:
  1. step-1
    Boil raw pasta according to the instructions given on the package or follow following instructions; Take 4-5 cups water in deep sauce pan, bring it to boil over medium flame. When it start boiling, add 3/4 cup Penne pasta and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  2. step-2
    Boil them until al-dente (cooked but not very soft). It will take around 10-12 minutes. To check whether pasta is cooked or not, take one pasta in a fork and bite it. If it is little firm to bite, it is cooked. If it is too hard to bite, it requires more cooking.
  3. step-3
    Transfer cooked pasta to a large colander and drain excess water.
  4. step-4
    While pasta is cooking, heat 1/2 teaspoon oil in a pan or kadai over high flame. Add 1/4 cup chopped carrot, 1/4 cup chopped green capsicum, 1/4 cup chopped red capsicum, 1/4 cup chopped broccoli and salt.
  5. step-5
    Stir and cook until veggies are little cooked but still crunchy, for around 2-3 minutes. Turn off the flame and transfer them to a plate.
  6. step-6
    Heat 1½ tablespoons butter in the same pan or kadai over medium flame. Add 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
  7. step-7
    Add 1½ tablespoons maida (all purpose flour).
  8. step-8
    Stir continuously and cook for a minute.
  9. step-9
    Pour 1½ cups milk little by little while stirring continuously with a whisk.
  10. step-10
    Stir and mix for 1-2 minutes.
  11. step-11
    Reduce flame to low. Continue stirring and cooking until mixture starts to thicken. It will take around 3-4 minutes depending on the size and thickness of the pan. When mixture starts to coat the back of a spoon as shown in the picture here, it means that it has started to thicken.
  12. step-12
    Add 1/4 teaspoon oregano, 1/4 teaspoon red chilli flakes, a pinch of black pepper powder and salt.
  13. step-13
    Mix well.
  14. step-14
    Add sautéed vegetables and pasta.
  15. step-15
    Turn off the flame. Mix well.
  16. step-16
    Transfer it to a serving plate. White sauce pasta is now ready. Garnish it with grated cheese and serve while they are still hot.
Tips and Variations:
  • White Pasta Sauce will continue to thicken as it cools down. So serve and enjoy pasta while they are still hot.
  • For cheesy flavor add 2 tablespoons grated cedar cheese or mozzarella cheese in step-10.
  • Use veggies of your choice. Sweet corn, button mushrooms, french beans, onion etc. (total 1 cup chopped veggies) are excellent for creamy white pasta.
  • Before using left over pasta, re-heat them with 1/4 cup milk or water to make sauce thinner.
  • For preparing white pasta in large quantity for party, follow the given steps. Make sauce, boiled pasta, and stir-fried veggies in advance. Then at the time of serving, re-heat the sauce (if sauce is too thick, add little water or milk in it), add boiled pasta and cooked veggies, mix and cook for 1-2 minutes.
Taste:   Soft and Creamy
Serving Ideas:  Serve hot pasta on its own or with tomato soup and bread pizza or garlic bread for dinner.

Cup means 200 ml cup or 500 ml cup?
Because of not clear measure of unit I made little white sauce.

Feb 17, 2020 by Seacube
Hi, thanks a lot for posting this recipe - I'm planning to try this out shortly.

Just one question though. You've mentioned that you'd like to use whole-wheat pasta as that is a healthier option. But then you are using maida (all-purpose flour) to prepare the sauce. Can we not use whole wheat flour (aata) or perhaps rice flour instead of the maida?

I saw in one of the other comments (by Neha) that she has tried barley flour but I'm unable to reply to that comment - does barley flour work well?

Thanks!

Response: Hi, you can use the whole wheat flour instead of maida to prepare the sauce. I have never tried barley flour so I am not sure about that.


Feb 16, 2020 by Shubhangi
Hey ma'am, I have my college fest tomorrow and I will be preparing pasta in large quantities. Can you please guide me with the same? And do I need to add butter in the pan while re heating the sauce?

Response: Sorry Shubhangi for the late reply. There is no need to add butter while reheating the sauce, just add more milk and reheat the sauce.

Jan 28, 2020 by Manasa
It was awesome, easy way to prepare. Thanks
Jan 09, 2020 by Twinkle Saxena

Jun 02, 2019 by Sreerupa
Just made this and it turned out great. This is my first time making pasta in white sauce and it helped to have such an easy, simple recipe without compromising on taste. Didn't have garlic but the oregano and chilli flakes made up for it (I haven't seen many others use them, so it was a pleasant surprise, especially since I had them at hand). Thanks a lot and keep posting :)
May 30, 2019 by Vineela
Can we add ghee instead of butter?

Response: Hi Vneela, you can't replace butter with ghee in this recipe. If you don't have butter, just skip it (use the same amount of any cooking oil as a replacement).

May 23, 2019 by Mahipal

Jul 20, 2018 by Sherrie
I was skeptical as I always am with web recipes but I thought I’ll give this a go. I also am cautious as I don’t like pasta that smell of Parmesan cheese. I cannot thank you enough. It turned out delicious and the whole family loved it!! Just to season it up a bit more I added:

Dried Basil, paprika, all spice, parsley and broken dry red chilli. I also added chicken. It was YUM!

And it smelt absolutely delicious too. Thank you once again.
Jun 21, 2018 by Any
Awesome I will cook...
Jun 18, 2018 by Raj
How can we add cheese to it ?

This recipe satiated my craving for white sauce pasta.
I altered it slightly by sticking a few cloves in half an onion and dipped the onion while the sauce was cooking..around step 10. Removed the onion before step 14. Also added some nutmeg powder before serving.

Awesome recipe. Everybody liked the pasta.
Oct 26, 2017 by Kalpesh
Sorry manasa

Corn flour will mike it much thick giving it very much consistency so maida is the only way to make a good white sauce.

Oct 15, 2017 by Neha
Thanks for the recipe... Turned out really well... However I replaced maida with 2 tbsp of barley flour... And also used hot water to adjust the consistency of saunce...
Sep 14, 2017 by Nimeelitha
I made Pasta for the first time and it came out really well. My husband also loved it!! Thanks for posting the wonderful recipe.
Sep 12, 2017 by Anushi Tyagi
Very helpful site easy to make the dishes what we want and in very comfortable manner and tasty also.
Sep 12, 2017 by Maanasa
It is super simple.
However important tip is that try to use CORN FLOUR instead of Maidha (all purpose flour). It's healthy. Even normal pasta can be replaced with WHEAT PASTA.
Thanks!! :-)
