- Tongs
- Aluminum foil
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Oil
- 1 tbsp Orengo seasonings
- 6 Garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp Salt
- 2 tbsp Chili Flakes
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- 1 cup Capsicum
- 1 tbsp Black pepper
- 150 g Mushroom
- 150 g Raw Fusilli Pasta
- 250 g Water
- 1/2 cup Grated Mozzarella Cheese
- 2 tbsp Chopped basil leaves
- 1 tbsp Melted butter
- 300 g Red pasta sauce
Instructions
- Cooking pasta is not a daunting task if all the ingredients and utensils are on the table. Gather ingredients and utensils, including a 7-inch pan. Make sure the basket of your air fryer is large enough to accommodate a 7-inch pan.
- Take the pan and add all the seasons plus ingredients to it. We need 6 garlic cloves so chop them and add melted butter, oil, chili flakes, orengo seasonings, chopped capsicum, sliced mushrooms, and raw paste to the pan. Mix all these ingredients then add salt, black pepper, sugar, and red pasta sauce to the pan.
- You can use a spoon to mix all the ingredients until you find that each one is incorporated with another one and then set the pan aside. Fill a bowl with water, pour it into the pan, and start mixing all the ingredients. The majority of people skip this step but water is an essential component to cook pasta.
- Open the aluminum foil and cover the head of the bowl properly. Make sure that the head of the pan is properly covered and then turn the air fryer on for preheating. Usually, people avoid preheating but it is important for even cooking so leave your air fryer for 2 to 5 minutes at 180 degrees F.
- When you find that the air fryer is ready to accept the pan, place it onto the basket and bake for 30 to 40 minutes. We have added oil in the mixture so when you place the pan into the air fryer, it will automatically start baking. Check pasta from time to time and mix all the ingredients using a spoon.
- Take the pan out of the basket, sprinkle cheese and chopped basil on the top and then place it again for a further 3 to 4 minutes. Increase the temperature of the air fryer to 390 degrees F and bake the mixture. When you find that cheese has melted, serve pasta with sauces.
