Cooking the Pasta

Heat about 4-5 cups of water in a sauce pan. Add 1 tsp of oil, required salt to the water.

Let the water come to rolling boil. At this stage add the Fusili Pasta[any pasta of your choice] to the water and stir really well.

Let the pasta cook for about 15 -20 minutes or cook the pasta according to the package instructions.
