This is the easiest and most delicious pasta you’ll ever make. Even the pasta is cooked in the pot. What a simple process!!
It is the easiest pasta you’ll ever make. The entire dish is prepared in just 5 minutes, including the spaghetti. The water only needs to be brought to a rolling boil.
Waiting for the pasta and liquid to reduce, which takes only 8-10 minutes, is the hardest part. It takes a very short time.
Add your freshly grated Parmesan cheese (freshly grated cheese is the key) and sprinkle with more Parm if you like.
