For cooking the fusilli pasta

1. For boiling the fusilli pasta forbaked pav bhaji pasta recipe | pav bhaji pasta | Indo Italian pav bhaji pasta |perfectly, boil enough of water in a large pan. If you use a small pan, the pasta will clump together on boiling.
   
2. Cover the pan with a lid to make the water boil faster.

4. Add the pasta to the boiling water and stir once.
   
5. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally and gently until the pasta is tender. Cooking times may vary with the size and the thickness of the pasta. Very small pasta (like macaroni, fusilli, conchiglie, penne) may cook in 5 to 7 minutes. Larger shapes (like spaghetti, fettuccine, dried lasagne sheets) may require 10 to 12 minutes. Refer to the package instructions to understand the exact cooking time.
   
6. After 5 to 7 minutes, remove one pasta out of the water and keep it aside to cool a little. Bite into the pasta or break it with a fork to check if it's still hard in the center or if it's cooked as you like. For perfectly cooked pasta, cook until it's al dente, which means it is a little firm in the center.
   
7. Immediately drain the cooked pasta into a sieve or colander.
   
8. Transfer to a bowl of cold water or refresh under running water to prevent overcooking.
