Penne Pasta in Makhani Sauce

Penne Pasta in Makhani Sauce

     Who doesn't love pasta ,I know there are many people coming in this category including my husband who thinks it to be on very bland side when it comes of taste ,no offence but it depends on person to person and with  people like us who love their chilies its  bit difficult to impress someone. So I had some makhani sauce left with me which I made earlier and thought of a fusion recipe, To combine creamy flavoured makhani gravy to the soft cooked pasta and it came out very well ,definitely a dish to try for...   
        The outcome was so good that my husband did admitted that with Indian tadka it  tasted delicious and can be attempted in future also. Kiddos too loved it. Happy ..
