Heat water in a pan. Add salt and few drops of oil to the boiling water. Then add pasta in it and allow it to cook ( It took 12 minutes for me to get it cooked).
When the pasta is cooked drain the water from the cooked pasta and run it cold water and keep it aside. Chop onions, tomato and garlic.
Heat oil in a pan add chopped onion and garlic. Saute well then add add chopped tomato, red chili powder, garam masala powder and salt to it. Mix well and saute until the tomatoes become soft.
