Cooking macaroni recipe has been a passion especially in Pakistan. Macaroni, pasta, vermicelli and noodles are basically Italian foods and when their recipes were introduced in Pakistan, people adopted them well and included these recipes in their food routine. Initially, these foods were prepared following exactly the Italian style however later, some Pakistani chefs presented them in a way that matched to Pakistani culture and food traditions.
Chef Zakir, chef Rida Aftab, chef Shireen Anwar and chef Fauzia came up with delicious tastes of macaronis and as of now there are lots of Pakistani recipes to make a macaroni in different flavors.
This spicy macaroni recipe is taken from the desk of chef Fauzia. Prepare the recipe and have fun with your family.

Children love to eat macaroni, I usually make it in red meat sauce but was in a hurry this time and made it with this quick recipe. I will recommend it for a snack time because it is easy to make and takes no time.
I've never heard of macaroni Pakistani style but this is one of the best lunch recipes that I have ever had, other than mac and cheese. I also shared this recipe with my siblings and they also loved it.
