A quick and creamy one-pot pasta dish ideal for busy weeknights, featuring garlic and Parmesan for a rich flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 320g pasta (your choice)
  • 500ml milk
  • 100g grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish
  • 30g unsalted butter (optional, for extra richness)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Add the pasta and milk to the pot, and bring to a simmer.
  3. Cook the pasta according to package instructions, stirring occasionally until most of the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is cooked.
  4. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until melted and creamy.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

For extra richness, stir in unsalted butter at the end. Use unsweetened almond milk for a lighter option, or add drained chickpeas for protein.
