Best Recipe I have ever created! - La recette du Saba

Living alone (well, almost) churns out the best creative talent in you. Or so I believe. This is the holiday season and it is too cold to go outside. What do you do to keep yourself warm?......
Stand next to the stove! Cook something! Invent something (edible)! And thats exactly what I did and came out with an amaaaaazing recipe which I have named "La recette du Saba"
It is incredibly simple and takes a total of ~15 mins to cook.
Here goes (Serves 1)
Ingredients needed:
One cup Pasta (any kind, shape , size or classification)
Diced Tomato 1/2 cup
Mixed vegetable of you choice, preferably Capsicum, Carrot, peas, corn or whatever leftover vegetable u feel like throwing into a cooking pot
Orange juice - 1/2 cup
Sabji Masala or Garam Masala - 1/2 spoon (Actually any masala u can get hold of, Like Pav Bhaji Masala or even Maggi Masala!)
Salt to taste (This is an irritating statement, so.. for amateurs, ~ a bit more than 1/4 spoon)
Chilli powder - 1/2 spoon (or non if u r not the 'hot' type)
Oregano (if u have)

And thats it

Now, take the pasta and put it into a microwave bowl along with the vegetables (Not the tomato) and fill the bowl with water. Microwave for 11 minutes.
Once done, drain the water and keep the pasta and vegetable in bowl.
Now, take a vessel big enough to cook the pasta and pour 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil (or Olive oil for those who like it) and heat it.
While it is getting heated, in the bowl containing the pasta, add all the ingredients mentioned above. (i.e. Tomato, Sabji Masala, Salt, Chilli Powder, Oregano et all except Orange juice). Mix it well.
Once the oil is heated, put all the ingredients in the cooking pot and stir it. Now add the orange juice and cook till all the water in the orange juice evapourates. Keep stirring occasionally, as the pasta tends to stick on to the vessel after a while.
Thats it!!
Eat and enjoy!! Comments (after trying it out) are most welcome!
