Bring salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until tender,
9 – 10 minutes. Drain and place in a large serving bowl.
Heat the Olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the mustard seeds. As they splutter, add the curry leaves and sauté for a few seconds.
Lower the heat, adds ginger garlic and onions, and cook until soft and translucent and garlic is golden, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the chilies; curry patta and turmeric powder with assorted veggies. Raise the heat to high and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds. Add the stock and let it come to boil. Now add coconut milk to this mixture. Add salt to taste. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for about 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally so it does not stick.
Now add spaghetti to this reduced sauce. Cook for another 3 minutes or till the time the sauce coats the spaghetti. Now stir in the tomato. Finally drizzle lots of lemon juice and parmesan cheese and serve hot.
Note: Do not over boil after adding coconut milk. It might split.
