How To Make The BEST Parmesan Noodles (Buttery, Cheesy, & Easy To Make)
- First off, get a large pot of salted water on the boil. We’re talking seawater salty Hahaha!
- Chuck your pasta in the water and let it cook up till it’s al dente.
- While your noodles are doing their thing, it’s time to melt the butter in a skillet.
- Once the butter’s all glossy and melted, and the pasta’s ready, transfer your noodles straight from the pot into the buttery skillet. A bit of the starchy pasta water coming along won’t hurt, it’ll add a bit of body to the sauce!
- Turn off the heat and throw in your Parmesan cheese, be sure to stir constantly to ensure an even cheesy distribution.
- Season that cheesy goodness with salt and black pepper.
Tips For The Best Results
- Cook the pasta al dente, it should be tender but still have a bite.
- Always season your pasta while it’s hot so it’ll better absorb the flavour.
Storage Tips
- Best served immediately, but can be refrigerated for 2-3 days. Reheat in a pan over medium heat.
