2. 2.Drain and Rinse Pasta

   Once boiled, drain the pasta using a colander. Rinse the pasta thoroughly with cold water to prevent it from sticking together.

   Add 1 medium chopped tomato and 1 medium chopped capsicum to the pan. Mix well and cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften slightly.

5. 5.Add Spices and Seasoning

   Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 1/2 teaspoon of red chili powder, and 1 teaspoon of coriander powder. Mix all the spices thoroughly with the vegetables. Then, add 1 packet (7g) of Maggi Masala and mix again.

6. 6.Incorporate Fresh Herbs and Ketchup

   Stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped coriander leaves. Add 2 tablespoons of tomato ketchup and mix well to combine all the flavors.

7. 7.Combine with Pasta

   Add the boiled and rinsed pasta to the pan with the vegetable mixture. Mix everything thoroughly, ensuring the pasta is well coated with the sauce. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

8. 8.Final Touches and Serve

   Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of oregano seasoning over the pasta. Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the dish. Serve the hot pasta in a plate and grate 2 tablespoons of cheese on top before serving.
