Stir for about 3-4 minutes. • Lower the heat and add wheat flour (atta). Stir for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw taste. • Pour the spinach puree and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring continuously. • Gradually add milk while stirring to avoid lumps. • Add red chilli flakes, oregano, crushed black pepper, and salt to taste. • Keep stirring until the sauce thickens to a creamy consistency. Turn off the heat and set aside. 2. Boiling the Pasta: • In a large pot, boil 7-8 cups of water. Add 1½ tsp salt and cover until it comes to a boil. • Add pasta and stir immediately to prevent sticking at the bottom. • Cook the pasta as per the package instructions, stirring occasionally. • Once cooked al dente (firm to bite), drain the pasta and reserve some of the boiled pasta water for further use. 3. Combining the Sauce and Pasta: • Reheat the sauce and adjust consistency using reserved pasta water if needed. • Add the boiled pasta, grated mozzarella cheese & finely chopped coriander leaves to the sauce. • Stir until the cheese melts completely. 4. Serving: • Transfer the creamy spinach pasta to serving bowls. • Sprinkle a little red chilli flakes and oregano on top for added flavour. • Serve hot and enjoy your healthy & delicious creamy spinach pasta! ************************* 𝐂𝐮𝐩 & 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: ************************* • 𝟏 𝐜𝐮𝐩 = 𝟐𝟒𝟎 𝐦𝐥, 𝟏 𝐭𝐛𝐬𝐩 = 𝟏𝟓 𝐦𝐥, 𝟏 𝐭𝐬𝐩 = 𝟓 𝐦𝐥 *********************** My social media links: *********************** YOUTUBE -    / tastydishesbyrashmi   FACEBOOK-   / tastydishesbyrashmi   INSTAGRAM-   / tastydishesbyrashmi   ************ Music used: https://www.epidemicsound.com/ ************ #tastydishesbyrashmi #creamyspinachpasta #greensaucepasta
