Have being busy these few weeks so quick meals such as one-pan dish definitely comes in handy. For example meals like fried rice or pasta suits the needs of busy cooks as these choices mostly appeals to both adult and children.

In this post we shared 3 different types of pasta infused dish with flavour from pairing ingredients such as curry, cheese, lemon and etc.



PASTA SALAD
(卷面沙拉)


Fusilli is one of the variety of pastas and it has a shape that looks like corkscrew. With its unique shape it makes it easier to coat on the sauce and therefore it is popular to use in making pasta salad.

In this recipe I made a light honey lemon sauce to toss with the cooked fusilli and it goes well with pan-fried salon too. My family love this simple and flavouful weeknight meal which can be easily prepared in less than 30 minutes.
