Top Tips:

 

  • You can boil your spaghetti in advance if you don’t want to do it at the same time as making the sauce – just follow the packet instructions, drain, place into a bowl and toss with olive oil so that it doesn’t clump together (be aware this will slightly increase the nutritional value overall).
  • Make sure you melt the butter and cook the garlic on a medium heat or you will burn them and this will make the dish bitter.
  • Make sure to whisk out any lumps of flour – if it’s very lumpy add some water and whisk until there are no lumps.
  • If the sauce gets too thick before you add the cream and parmesan, just add some water, 50-100ml at a time.
  • We recommend serving with a little more fresh parmesan grated on top, and some fresh rosemary or thyme sprinkled on top.
