Spaghetti is a durum wheat product. Unlike maida chowmein noodles, spaghetti is not required washing in cold water after cook. Washing in cold water destroy a teste of pasta. For best result direct toss hot boiled pasta with ready sauce and serve .

This was awesome! I modified the recipe a little bit to use more tomato and lesser ketchup and it truly gave the Indian spice to an Italian dish! Loved it.
