Recipe for The Boombay Mac Salad

Whenever I go for a wedding reception, my eyes are always looking for the Macaroni salad at the salad counter. I absolutely love macaroni in any form, pasta, soup, salad or plain butter garlic pepper.

I usually make Macaroni salads whenever there are left over salad veggies and I don’t feel like just a plain salad.

Since Sophie, my sis-in-law sent me some delish Boombay Brand products from Mumbai, I was intrigued to try them out in a recipe. I thought why not elevate my Macaroni salad today and Boy! Was it good? So here’s the recipe of my Boombay Mac Salad! You must try it out! Thankie Fofi for these yumzo products!

Instructions

For Boiling the Macaroni

In a vessel add the macaroni, water, salt and oil and boil the macaroni
Strain the macaroni and let all the water drain out in another vessel (you can use this water to boil the egg) and keep the macaroni to cool completely

For the Salad

Transfer the Macaroni into the bowl or vessel in which you will be making the salad. Add the mustard paste and chilli oil and mix it well. Then, keep the macaroni aside to cool completely
Note: Have a little taste of the chilli oil in advance and add the oil as per your preference. Some Chilli Oils are very spicy so you don’t want to have fire coming out of those ears while eating 😊
Now, throw in the chopped veggies and the other ingredients and mix it all well and the Macaroni salad is ready. You can either refrigerate it or enjoy it at room temperature
An Extra Tip: You can also add some pieces of Grilled Chicken, Crispy Bacon, or any other Protein of your choice and turn into a full meal. Tastes Superb!
