  3. Step 3Cook the pasta

    Add the dry pasta directly to the pan along with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, stirring occasionally until the pasta is cooked and most of the liquid has been absorbed.

    Note

    Stir frequently to prevent sticking since you're cooking the pasta in the pan.
