Equipment

  • deep frying pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 160 g spaghetti uncooked
  • 2.5 cups chicken or vegetable stock 600ml
  • 4 Laughing Cow triangles
  • 30 g parmesan
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • cooking oil
  • fresh chopped parsley

Instructions
 

  • Lightly spray a deep frying pan with olive oil spray and place over a medium-high heat.
  • Add the chopped onion and fry for a couple of minutes until softened and translucent.
  • Stir in the crushed garlic and cook gently for a minute, just to release the flavour.
  • Pour in a little of the stock to prevent the garlic from burning, and continue to cook for a few minutes until the garlic softens. Add a splash more stock if the pan dries out.
  • Add the remaining stock and the Laughing Cow cheese, stirring until the cheese melts into the liquid.
  • Add the spaghetti, making sure it’s mostly submerged.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it gently simmer for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and the sauce has thickened and turned creamy.
  • If the liquid reduces too quickly and the pasta isn’t fully cooked, add a little extra stock or water as needed.
  • Stir in the parmesan, reserving a little to sprinkle on top.
  • Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Finish with a scatter of fresh chopped parsley and serve.

Notes

For a vegetarian option, use a vegetarian Italian style hard cheese instead of parmesan.
