Anyone ever cook their pasta directly in the sauce, from start to finish?

A few weeks ago I did some pasta in the pressure cooker with the sauce. While I over cooked it, I was intrigued by the idea of not using two pots and getting more flavor into the pasta itself. The experts always say to "finish" the pasta in the sauce to let it soak up some of that sauce, so why not just cook it in the sauce?

Made some rigatoni with a meat sauce last night, just using my favorite canned sauce. Figured I'd give it a shot. Did a little Googling to find out how much water 1 pound of pasta will absorb and added that much water to my meat sauce. Got it all up to boiling and added the pasta. It turned out really well. The pasta took about 1.5x the time to cook through, but the sauce came out wonderfully thickened by the extra starch from the pasta (I always add a ladle or so of starchy pasta water to the final dish to help the sauce cling).

I think this is how I'll cook most pasta from now on. It takes a little bit longer, but I don't have an extra stock pot to clean. (One thing I read, don't try this with spaghetti or a long noodle like that - they need space to move around or they stick together; not the case with tubular pastas and smaller shapes.)

Made a killer thai kale salad for lunch.
CHopped up kale
bag of broccoli slaw
thin sliced onion
chopped cabbage
sliced almonds
hulled pumpkin seeds
chopped cashews

Mix all the above together

Dressing: juice of two limes, teaspoon sriracha, tablespoon grated ginger, tablespoon grated garlic, 1 cup rice wine vinegar, teaspoon sesame oil, tablespoon miso paste, tablespoon dijon mustard. Whisk all the above and pour onto the other stuff. Devour.
Very healthy and very tasty. I added some grilled chicken to it for lunch, but I made it as a side salad the other night by itself.

Made Gnocchi last night....not bad. I'd never tried it before and didn't have a potato ricer so I ran the potatoes through a hard cheese grater (the wheel style). I probably used a little too much flour, but nothing terrible. I put in about as much egg as it took to make it all stick together.

After a quick boil, I fried them off in butter and served them with pesto and pork steaks. Pretty good stuff and not all that difficult to make (would be really easy if you did have the ricer).

It's recommended that pasta be cooked partially—then cook the remaining time in the sauce. I've done it like that.

I've done that hundreds of times... That's traditional. I was asking my the non-traditional method I described.

It's still boiled. Like I said, I added extra water to the sauce so it would rehydrate properly. It's still very much pasta.

I have tried fried rice and it never comes out well, don't have a gas stove or a wok.
