No. It doesn't take that long before it sinks anyway.

Best way to check if its cooked though, is to take out a strand, cut it in half and if its still white in the middle, its not cooked yet.

Only takes about a minute for it to be soft enough to all fit in the pan

Lol. You splay it out in the pan. I am forever trying to push it down 'cause I am too impatient.

Making sauce though is easy Joe. It just takes a while.

I remember in food tech this girl set her spaghetti on fire cause it was sticking out of the pan. Dunno how she managed it but she did.

Doesn't sound too bad, think we've got most of that. I'm really in the mood for it now at like 01:54am but dunno what I'll be like tomorrow evening haha maybe work my way up, get the spaghetti nailed tomorrow, and need to use that sauce anyway

Best thing to do is make a sh.it load and then freeze what you have left over for when you are next in the mood.

yeah, cos once you open sauce you need to use it quite fast I think, so best to put a lot to use.

I ended up making it

I didn't need to snap it in the end either, with much prodding it all got in there in the end. I just grabbed a handful and it seemed to be enough.
