Vegetable Grimaldi
by Tarla Dalal

Spaghetti, cheese and pineapple in a sauce with a twist! the addition of pineapple syrup makes the vegetable grimaldi a memorable preparation whose taste lingers in your mouth for moments after every spoonful. A dash of pepper helps enhance the fruity flavour, while baking it with the right amount of cheese removes the raw smell and gives it a perfect texture too.
