I love Cheese pasta and I have had it several times in Hotels and restaurants, especially when I go for buffet dinner. I still remember having this cheesy white pasta at a restaurant called "Mathsya" at T.Nagar. He made it then and there and served it super hot.I was just blown away by that creamy taste.Dominoes also serve this white pasta. Once, my good friend who has designed the title header for Griha Bhojanam had made this pasta on an occasion.Until then,I never even wondered that pasta was something that could be made easily at home.This recipe has been stolen from him :P Here is the simple, easy white sauce pasta recipe that could be made very easily at home.
