Notes

Always cook the sauce on the lowest heat to avoid sauce getting curdled.

If you like the pasta having more sauce then you can always increase the sauce quantity than this recipe calls for.

You can add light cream/half and half, to make lighter version of this recipe but then richness of final sauce will be reduced.

You can use Parmesan grated ,so that sauce will get the consistency to be thick,cheese will melt and mix well.Using freshly grated cheese is best to get the perfect taste.

Cook the pasta until al dente so that sauce will be nicely coating the pasta.If the sauce is thick for your liking either add some lukewarm milk/lukewarm water to the sauce to adjust the sauce consistency.
