Ingredients

  • Spaghetti 200 g
  • Water for boiling 2 liters, with 20 g of salt
  • Garlic 1 clove
  • Lemon ½ (zest and juice)
  • Mullet Roe Pasta Oil 3 tbsp

Steps

  1. Bring the salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti for 1 minute less than the time on the package.
  2. Meanwhile, slice the garlic thinly, grate the lemon zest and squeeze the juice.
  3. Warm the Mullet Roe Pasta Oil and the garlic in a frying pan over low heat for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
  4. Add about 50 ml of the cooking water and bring it to a simmer.
  5. Add the drained spaghetti and toss over medium heat for about 1 minute, until the sauce coats the pasta.
  6. Turn off the heat, add the lemon juice and zest, toss once more and serve.

Tip Adding the lemon off the heat keeps its fresh aroma.
