Ingredients
-
1 pack (340 g) gluten-free spaghetti Pasta
-
1 pinch Rock salt
-
2 tablespoons Vegetable butter
-
1/2 cup fresh Basil
-
A few twists Black pepper
-
For the dressing:
-
1/2 cup Olive oil
-
1/3 cup juiced Lemon
-
1 teaspoon Lemon zest
-
1/2 teaspoon Sea salt
-
1/4 teaspoon Garlic powder
-
1/2 cup Non-dairy Parmesan-like cheese
Directions
Spaghetti al limone (lemon spaghetti) is a delicious dish that you can whip up in a few minutes, and with only a few common ingredients. Very easy to prepare, it’s creamy, tasty, and refreshing.
To prepare it, cook the spaghetti in a large pot of water, following the instructions on the package. Here, I have used gluten-free corn spaghetti, but you can use whatever type of spaghetti you prefer.
While the spaghetti is cooking, prepare the dressing by mixing together olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and vegan Parmesan-like cheese. You should obtain a creamy texture. Take a cup of water from the pot, and set it aside. Heat two tablespoons of vegetable butter in a skillet, over low heat.
When your spaghetti is “al dente”, drain and transfer to the skillet. Stir, and pour the dressing over the spaghetti. Fold gently, and add the cup of water from the boiling pot. Continue to cook until you obtain a creamy texture.
Sprinkle your spaghetti with freshly minced basil, then transfer to the serving plates. Garnish with some fresh basil leaves and a twist of black pepper.
Enjoy!
