Homemade pasta with lemon-coriander sauce(dhaba style)

Indiaized pasta version for all the spice seekers... This pasta dish seems like it came it came straight out of a Indo-italian 'dhaba'(Indian version of a diner) - but no, it's a concoction out of my kitchen :)




Ingredients:
Homemade pasta - see the video below on how to shape it OR just regular pasta would work too!
Generous bunch of fresh Coriander
One dried red chilly
One clove of garlic
Juice of half a lemon or one lime
Salt
Pepper
Some Olive oil








Shaping the pasta

Method:
1. Prepare the pasta sauce by mixing coriander, chilly, garlic, salt, pepper,lemon juice and very little water in a blender.
Note: At this point you can start cooking your pasta in boiling water is if it's store bought.

2. Start warming olive oil in a pan.

3. Once the oil is warm, put the sauce in and heat it for a minute.
Note: At this point you can start cooking your pasta in boiling water is if it's homemade(since it hardly takes a minute to cook it). Over boiling fresh pasta will make it chewy.

4. At this time add your cooked pasta to the sauce.

5. Serve the hot pasta with some more lemon juice and garnish with fresh coriander.

Enjoy dhaba style pasta with some chilled beer! :)
