White sauce spaghetti and Endless wait on my Visa

No one likes waiting! I don't like it too, this wait is making me restless. I feel depressed some times because of my bad luck. Feels like you are seeing much frustrated and restless me, right! well all this anger and distress is due to long wait on my visa status. We’re all aware of the identity crisis that many girls experience after they get married and come to the USA on a dependent visa, famously or infamously known as H4 visa holders. The alarming number of stories about depression and loneliness experienced by H4 wives inspired me to share this part of story of me with you all.

I am also like many girls who come USA on dependent visa. I love working and my dream is to become a successful Biotechnologist. Though I have masters degree in India it is not enough to get a job here. So, I have joined school, for MS degree again. Recently, I have been granted an assistantship by my school, for which I am not eligible since I am on dependent visa. I have to apply for so called student visa F1. It's been more than two months now, still status is stuck at an initial review. I would give a damn to such rules that make the dependents more frustrated. I do not know what to do right now! I should have an SSN by next week to have my assistantship in hand. I would fairly consider this as an injustice to the dependent visa holders that they cannot work. At home I always feel that I am in golden cage where my dreams are being burnt in a charcoal casserole. I am stumbling all along my path towards my dream goal since I am in USA. Life here is not so easy if you come here with a dream, you have to do much more hard work than you think, to make your dollar dreams come true someday., I hope that all will be well soon and ending my story with a positive note and anxiety..

I just happened to see this recipe on some TV show one day and made it yesterday. It was really awesome and I am happy to share with you all, you will definitely love it.

Ingredients
Spaghetti: 1/2 packet
Water as required
salt to taste
milk-1 cup
wheat flour/ all purpose flour/ maida-1tbsp
pepper powder to taste
oregano or your favorite herbs-1/2tbsp
olive oil-1tbsp
garlic crushed-1/2tbsp
cheese of your choice- I used American cheese and suggest you to use shredded cheddar cheese.
If you wish to add veggies you can add them boiled
1tbsp of butter/olive oil
Method
Fill the pot with 3/4th water and bring it to boil. Add 1/2tbsp salt and spaghetti. While the spaghetti cooks we will prepare sauce. it should cook in just 10min. Then you drain 1/2 of water and keep it aside with remaining water left in it so that spaghetti may not stick to each other. But, while serving remove entire water.

For sauce:
Add 1tbsp of butter/olive oil in a medium heat pan and add 1tbsp of maida/wheat flour. Fry till it turns slight brown. Add 1 cup of milk and and keep stirring on a medium flame. Soon the mixture turns to a thick paste and to that paste add herbs, salt and pepper. Mix well and turn off the stove.

Seasoning Spaghetti
Heat 1/2tbsp of oil in a pan and add garlic and vegetables if you wish and mix well. Finally add spaghetti when the raw flavor of garlic disappears.

Serving:

Noe take a serving bowl and add spaghetti. Spread white sauce on top of it and sprinkle come cheese. yummy and delicious white sauce spaghetti is ready. I suggest you to add mushrooms to this recipe, it gives an amazing taste to this recipe.

Hope you will enjoy it.
