In a large wok, heat olive oil and mustard seeds, until mustard seeds begin to sizzle. Next add in: turmeric, cumin, garam masala, chaat masala, red chili powder, diced onions and chopped garlic. Mix well. Once onions start to brown slightly, add in tomato sauce and half & half. Continue to stir frequently for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle in 1 tsp of sugar first, taste test to see if you would like to add more in. Sometimes the tomato sauce can be a bit tangy, so I like to add sugar. Depending on which tomato sauce you use, you may need to use up to 2 tsps of sugar.
Add in zoodles and mix together. Allow zoodles to cook for 5 minutes for a crunchy texture, or 10 minutes for a well done texture. I prefer to cook for 10 minutes, to allow all spices to blend together. Lastly, mix in oregano, parsley, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
Top with cilantro and serve with Parmesan cheese! Or Mozzarella! Or both!
Two ingredients I top these zoodles with are: Sour Cream & Nirav Garlic Chutney. If you have any of these on hand.. do try it!! It is purely optional!
