Serves – 4
Prep Time – 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 350 g San Remo Spaghetti

    3 tbsp Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil

    2 cloves garlic, minced

    2 tbsp flat-leaf parsley, chopped

    Juice and zest of 1 large lemon

    30 g Parmesan cheese, freshly grated plus extra to serve

    Coles sea salt

    Coles black pepper

Method

  • Cook the pasta in a pot of salted boiling water for 9 minutes, then drain and reserve ½ a cup of the cooking water.

    Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute before adding in the parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Add the pasta water then bring up to a simmer. Stir through the cheese and cracked pepper until the sauce starts to thicken slightly.

    Add the pasta into the sauce and cook, tossing occasionally for 2 minutes, or until the sauce has emulsified and is coating the pasta.

    Place into serving bowls and grate over more lemon zest and Parmesan cheese.
