Lemon Pasta | Serves 4

🍴INGREDIENTS🍴

1lb / 500g Dried Spaghetti
6 tbsp / 90g / 3oz Butter, diced into cubes
1/3 cup / 30g freshly grated Parmesan, plus more to serve
2 heaped tbsp finely diced Fresh Parsley, plus more to serve
1 large Lemon, zest and juice
3 cloves of Garlic, finely diced
1/4 - 1/2 tsp Black Pepper (see notes)
Salt, as needed

🍴METHOD🍴

Add spaghetti to a pot of heavily salted boiling water and cook un al dente. Don't drain the liquid when it's cooked, transfer the pasta straight from the pot to the pan. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water just before its cooked.

Meanwhile melt butter into a pan over medium heat, then add garlic, lemon zest and black pepper. Fry for a couple of mins to cook the garlic, then pour in lemon juice and 1/2 cup of starchy pasta water. Whisk it to emulsify everything until it begins turning cloudy.

Add in parmesan and continue to stir until it melts into the sauce. Transfer spaghetti straight from the pot into the pan and add parsley. Toss the pasta until the sauce thickens and wraps around the pasta. It should have a light creamy/glossy texture. Use more starchy pasta water to thin out as needed, or continue to toss and reduce the sauce if it's too watery.

Check for seasoning and adjust accordingly, then serve with extra parmesan and parsley if desired!

Chris, hi. You and I are on the list of the Top 30 Men's cooking websites on the Internet. I wanted to connect with you on your various social media platforms. You have a very impressive footprint!! Some amazing recipes! Whenever I hear "Bacon, " I think of my son, Carlo. When we were moving to Milwaukee 10 years ago, he tried to have bacon with every meal on a weekend. It is actually pretty easy here, but Bacon always reminds me of him. Best of luck to you!!
