About

Tomato Creamy Pasta is a simple yet a very elegant and presentable dish. As the name suggests, this pasta dish is smooth on texture but is not overloaded with cream or fats. The secret ingredient is the “tomato paste” which gives the creamy and rich feel to the pasta and adds in that extra tangy zing to it.
