After 5 minutes of cooking, stir the pasta to ensure it doesn't stick together.

At the 10-minute mark, add chopped spring onions to the pasta to soften them.

After 12 minutes, drain the pasta and onions in a colander.

Allow the pasta to cool for about 10 to 15 minutes before mixing with other ingredients.

In a mixing bowl, add the cooled pasta and onions, followed by chopped red, yellow, and green bell peppers.

Add sweet corn to the bowl with the pasta and vegetables.

Mix the ingredients together thoroughly before adding mayonnaise.

Start with about 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise, mixing well, and add more if needed for desired creaminess.

Season the mixture with about 1 teaspoon of black pepper and mix again until well combined.
