Ingredients Equipment Préparation Notes

Ingrédients
  

  • 2 tbsp Butter unsalted
  • 4 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 200 g Uncooked spaghetti
  • 2 cups Vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated plus extra for serving
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Équipement

  • Large skillet or pot
  • Wooden Spoon

Préparation
 

  1. Melt the butter in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes, until fragrant and lightly golden.
  2. Add the uncooked spaghetti and pour in the vegetable broth. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook uncovered for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is tender.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan. Stir continuously until the sauce becomes thick and creamy, about 2–3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  5. Remove from heat and garnish with chopped parsley and extra Parmesan. Serve immediately while hot and creamy.

Notes et conservation

For extra flavor, add a pinch of chili flakes or stir in cooked chicken, mushrooms, or spinach. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat with a splash of cream or milk to restore the texture.
