Need a fast dinner? This garlic butter pasta is your new weeknight best friend.

You only need pasta, fresh garlic, butter, and real parmesan cheese.

Salt the water heavily. It should taste like the ocean before adding the pasta.

Slowly melt butter and toast sliced garlic until it is pale gold and fragrant.

Keep that starchy pasta water! It is the key to a silky, glossy sauce.

Combine pasta and sauce. Toss vigorously to let the starch and butter create a cream.

Top with freshly grated parmesan. The best meals are often the simplest ones.
