Ingredients

• 400 grams spaghetti
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 pieces garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 200 milliliters heavy cream
• 100 grams parmesan cheese, grated
• 100 grams mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions, until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves and sauté them in the olive oil for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 4

Add the butter to the skillet and allow it to melt completely.

Step 5

Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Add the grated parmesan and shredded mozzarella cheese to the skillet. Stir continuously until the cheese is fully melted and incorporated into the sauce.

Step 7

Season the sauce with salt, black pepper, and optional red chili flakes. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 8

Toss the cooked spaghetti into the skillet, coating it thoroughly in the creamy cheese sauce. If the sauce is too thick, use the reserved pasta water, adding a little at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.

Step 9

Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately while warm and creamy.
