Got this from the recession chef. I added a few extra things.
Ingredients:
- ½ box of angel hair pasta
- 1 small shallot, diced (I added this)
- 3-4 minced garlic cloves (I added this)
- 2 teaspoons grated pepper
- 5 cubes of butter
- ¾ cups of salted pasta water
- ½ cup or pecorino grated
- ½ cup of parmesan, grated
Directions:
Boil water, adding a lot of salt for the pasta. Add the pasta. Cook a minute less than what the box says as it will finish in the sauce. Reserve pasta water. Drain the rest.
On medium heat, add the butter to the empty pasta pot. Once the butter is melted, add the pepper. Stir and let sit for about a minute. You should smell the pepper. If you’re using shallots and garlic, add it now. Stir for about a minute. Add the pasta water and whisk it in.
Add the pasta. Then add the cheese. Whisk it hard to incorporate. Once the sauce starts to form, turn the heat off.
Plate it immediately. Add more cheese on top. Enjoy this silky delicious pasta dish!
