Ingredients for pasta with pepper and cheese
- About 1.1 pounds of wheat spaghetti
- A teaspoon of pepper
- A cup of grated cheese - any variety will do
- A pinch of salt
- Two tablespoons of olive oil
Preparing pasta with pepper and cheese
- Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packaging. Ensure not to add it into the pot until the water starts boiling, otherwise, it could become unappetizing and sticky.
- Once the pasta is al dente, drain it using a colander. While doing so, running it under cold water can help to prevent pipes from cracking due to the high temperature.
- Spread olive oil on a pan and heat it up. Once it's warm, add the drained pasta and previously grated cheese to the pan.
- Stir the pasta and cheese together to avoid sticking and ensure even distribution. Once the cheese has fully melted, take the pan off the heat and serve the dish in a deep plate or bowl.
Your lunch is now ready. Before serving, season the pasta with salt and pepper and give it a gentle stir.
