If you like garlic flavour then this is a must try for you! This is mildly spiced but still flavourful so its our family favourite especially the kids. Garlic flavour is the best in this pasta, also cheese adds a creaminess to this pasta.
The trick to get creamy Spaghetti Pasta is to add pasta cooked water to the sauce, it not only gives creaminess to the paste also makes the pasta moist and juicy.
What is Spaghetti?
Spaghetti is a special type of long, thin, cylindrical noodle pasta variety. It is the staple food of Italian cuisine. Italian Spaghetti is made from durum-wheat semolina. Usually Spaghetti made using refined flour but wheat spaghetti is also available.
Spaghetti is made from refined and water. Whole-wheat and multigrain spaghetti are also available. A thin variety of spaghetti called Capellini or colloquially called angel hair spaghetti is what I have used here.

Spaghetti Pasta Ingredients
- Pasta – You can use any variety of noodle pasta or spaghetti. You can choose from linguine, fettuccine, or any other shape of pasta noodle. You can also use whole wheat spaghetti or regular spaghetti I have used the thin variety spaghetti called as angel hair spaghetti.
- Garlic – Add finely chopped or minced garlic for best flavour. You can even crush garlic using garlic press and use it.
- Butter – There is no oil used here only butter so use butter generously for the sauce to coat the spaghetti.

Expert Tips
- Always cook spaghetti in a large pot of salty water. Cook until aldente or a bit tender as per your preference. But make sure its nonsticky after cooking. You can toss it in olive oil to avoid sticking.
- We have added salt while cooking spaghetti so add salt keeping that in mind to the sauce.
- While cooking spaghetti add little more salt than usual and do not overcook.
- Take care not to burn garlic it should be fried only till golden.
- Take care while cooking the sauce – do not burn the butter so be quick and tossing is the key here.
Variations
- Add vegetables like broccoli, mushrooms, baby corn, corn or carrot etc.
- You can add spring onion for more flavour and crunch if you prefer. Substitute it with regular chopped onions too.
Serving & Storing Suggestion
Serve it hot with toasted bread or roasted chicken it tastes great on its own too. Spaghetti Pasta keeps well in room temperature only for a day. I would recommend storing as it tastes best only when had fresh.
