For 4 servings
Boil the macaroni in 8 cups of water with 1 tsp of salt. Cook according to package directions until 'al dente' (firm to the bite), typically 8-10 minutes. Before draining, reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Drain the macaroni and set aside.
Heat oil in a large pan or kadai over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them splutter for about 30 seconds. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and slit green chillies. Cook for another minute until the raw aroma disappears. Then, add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn mushy and oil begins to separate from the masala.
Add the spice powders: turmeric, red chilli powder, and coriander powder. Mix well and cook for one minute until fragrant. Add the diced carrots, capsicum, green peas, and 1 tsp of salt. Stir to combine.
Add a splash (about 1/4 cup) of the reserved pasta water to the pan. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still have a slight crunch.
Add the boiled macaroni to the vegetable masala. Pour in the tomato ketchup and sprinkle with garam masala. Gently toss everything together until the macaroni is evenly coated. If it seems too dry, add another splash of the reserved pasta water. Cook for 2 more minutes.
