Namaste! Welcome to Ruchkar Mejwani 
with Archana!
You must be thinking where is Chef Archana?
It's Chef Archana's birthday today!
But she also has to shoot!
So, today as a surprise, I will cook
a recipe for her!
But she doesn't know about it.
I am waiting for her...
Narayan, I am ready.
Hey! Anagha, you are here!
Yes!
Here's Pasta...
Chef, wait...
Today, you won't do anything!
Today, I am going to prepare something for you!
'Pasta in White Sauce'
Wow! So I will relax today.
Since long time, I wished that someone 
should cook for me and I shall just eat it!
Anagha, what will we begin with?
Let's begin with boiling the pasta.
So, let's take some water?
- Yes.
2 cups of water.
I am really enjoying that my Channel Manager
is here, cooking something specially for me!
And yes, my team is amazing!
The ambiance is so pleasant
that we enjoy a lot during the shoots.
And we enjoy as it's you who makes
the ambiance pleasant!
Water has boiled.
Yes, now let's add some salt to it
Now...
- Now, let's add pasta to it.
Anagha, it comes in various types, isn't it? 
Yes, you can opt for any type 
as per your liking.
I have opted for 'penne' (pasta),
you can even take spaghetti or macaroni!
What's the amount of the pasta 
we have taken here?
We have taken a cup of pasta
and it will take 10 minutes to cook.
10 minutes later.
Now, let's check if it's done.
Yes, it's done.
Now, let's strain it.
- Yes.
Please, will you do it?
- Yes, Anagha I will do it.
What do we do after this?
Now, let's immediately pour some
chilled water on it.
Now?
- Next, we will add oil to it.
Why do we add oil? - Adding oil keeps
the pasta separated and doesn't let it stick.
1 tbsp of oil.
Mix it well.
Chef, you are doing everything; let me do it!
Okay, you do it. But if there's 
stove in front me, I cannot resist cooking!
But, today you are not supposed to make
anything! - Why? - Because you are the Birthday girl.
Oh! Okay, so let's sit back and relax today.
This has been mixed well,
now let's take out the pasta in a bowl.
It's nicely separated.
Now?
- Now, let's start making white sauce.
So, let's begin...
- With butter!
Let's take butter. How much?
- 1 to 1 and a half tbsp of butter.
It should melt nicely.
Anagha, now?
- Now, let's add all purpose flour (maida).
How much?
- 1 tbsp.
Let's roast it nicely.
Let's get rid off these lumps.
This is done,
let's add chopped garlic to it.
1 to 1 and a half tsp of garlic.
Now, let's add some milk to it.
Milk.
First, let's add only a cup of milk
and add more later, if required.
Let's stir it well until the milk 
turns a bit thick in consistency.
Milk has thickened,
now let's add chhedar cheese.
Anagha, let me do it, I like this!
- Okay.
Just tell me how much.
- Approximately 1 tbsp
Grate a bit more.
I love cheese but it increases the weight.
That's enough.
Once in a while it's fine.
And for the birthday girl, definitely!
So, I should eat everything (I like) today
and observe a fast tomorrow! - Yes.
Very good!
- It's a special day today!
Cheese has melted,
now let's add the seasoning ingredients to it.
Firstly, let's add oregano.
Approximately half or a full spoon (tbsp).
Its aroma is amazing.
Half a tsp of black pepper.
Now, let's add salt.
Here it is.
A spoon?
- No, I will add it using hands.
I have learnt it from you.
Now, I will mix it well.
The room has filled with its aroma!
Now, let's add bell peppers to it.
Yellow bell pepper.
- Lengthwise chopped yellow bell pepper.
Arrangement is done very well.
Everything according to your choice!
Nice!
These colorful bell peppers look very nice.
Now, let's add basil leaves.
You can just crush them using hands and add.
Let's mix it.
If the sauce seems very thick, 
you can add some milk to it.
Now, our main ingredient, pasta.
Due to the oil, it's nice and separated.
We can see the pasta is well separated!
Let's mix it well.
Pasta is ready, let's serve it.
Now, let's garnish it with cherry tomatoes.
Let's also top it up with some basil leaves.
And?
- And now, sprinkle some parmesan cheese.
It's done! So, I am ready to eat.
- No! It's not done yet.
With this, we also have Garlic Bread!
I have taken this garlic flavored bread,
which is easily available in the market.
Now, let's prepare the spread mixture
to apply on it.
This is chopped garlic, I am adding
soft, room temperature butter to it.
Let's add a bit oregano to it.
Just to add in some flavor.
- Yes, exactly.
I will mix it nicely now.
This has been mixed well, 
let's spread it on the bread.
It has been spread on all the breads,
let's roast them now.
Pan is hot enough.
Place the side of the bread
with mixture application downwards.
Now, let's flip them.
Let's roast them until golden brown.
Now, let's take them out.
And now, Garlic Bread too is ready!
Now, it's the time to do something 
that I have been waiting for! 
I will taste the Pasta 
that Anagha has prepared for me!
Anagha, it's delicious!
And with it, Garlic Bread... I was so 
tempted while they were being made!
Tomorrow, in the evening, 
no rice; I am preparing Pasta!
