One pot pasta is a method of cooking a pasta dish with 2-3 elements in the same utensil. In this recipe, unlike traditional pasta recipes, the sauce isn't prepared separately from the pasta. In this method the vegetables and the sauce are cooked in a stock pot and then the dried pasta is added to it with some water or milk. Everything is slowly cooked together and optionally finished off with some cheese.

It's a recipe that's made in just around 10 minutes so it's the perfect snack for anytime your hunger pang strikes.
1) In a large stock pot add water and set it over high heat to boil. Add quartered mushrooms, chopped French beans and broccoli florets to the water. Cover the pot till 50% of the vegetables are cooked.
2) Add dry pasta to the pot with some salt and cover the stock pot till the pasta is cooked. Once cooked, open the lid and let the excess water dry out.
3) Add fresh cream to the pasta with all the different grated cheeses and dried herbs. Mix it all together to form a sauce.
4) Serve the pasta hot and garnish with some more grated cheese and olive slices.
Expert Tips
1) Do not fully cook the vegetables in the start or they might overcook when the pasta is done.
2) Make sure that all the vegetables are evenly chopped otherwise they won't cook the same.
3) Make sure to mix the pasta till the cheese and cream emulsify into a creamy sauce.
