I believe that food has to satisfy the eyes first, followed by the mouth. The crumbled look of bow tie pasta is perfectly doing its job to follow the above concept.

Some small tips are essential to get perfect pasta all the time. Tip number one is not to add oil while boiling pasta, as it could form a coat and prevent it from combining with the flavors. Tip number two: Cook it for 1-2 minutes more if you prefer softer pasta.

Peas are optional in this recipe; I have added them as it would give some contrasting color and texture to the dish.

How to make corn paste

1. Cook pasta as per the package's direction. Along with this, add green peas and sweet corn kernels. If you prefer softer pasta like mine, allow it to boil for another 1-2 minutes. Run through cold water to prevent it from cooking further. Drain and leave it aside.

2. In a heavy-bottomed pan, add butter and then chopped garlic. Once the butter is melted, add arrowroot flour/ cornflour, and on a simmering flame, fry till the flour is incorporated with the butter.

3. Then slowly add 2% milk, and in medium flame, mash the lumps with a spoon if any, to form a thick paste, and add dried basil leaves.

4. And continuously stir until it becomes thicker, like in this picture. Adjust with the milk for desired consistency. Switch off the flame and now add Dijon mustard sauce and stir again. Add kept-aside pasta, green peas, and corn kernels.

5. Again, in the simmering flame, combine all the added ingredients with this sauce. Make sure the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce. Finally, add grated cheese and serve.
