You can also just make everything in the same pan. Use less water, and you reduce it down to your half cup. Have a kettle boiled so you can add some water if the past isn't done. This works great for something like sun-dried tomatoes, you can add them with the pasta and they soften up nicely. I'm not sure if an Italian wants to kill me after reading this, but I don't care, it's delicious, and only dirties one pan.
