Burnt Butter Pasta

A pasta dish with just three ingredients and two pantry staples? We’re serious! Give your signature pasta a rest and try this one instead. Its subtle flavor allows it to complement any dish.


Serves 6  Prep Time 5 minutes  Cooking Time 15 minutes

300 grams pasta
1/3 cup butter
3 tablespoons breadcrumbs
chopped parsley, optional
salt and pepper 

1  Cook pasta according to package directions.

2  Melt butter in pan. Add breadcrumbs; season with salt and pepper.

3  Let the butter brown until breadcrumbs become slightly toasted.

4  Toss in pasta.

5  Add chopped parsley as garnish, if desired.


Yummy tip To make the dish even yummier, use flavored breadcrumbs. Where to get it? Buy a loaf of herbed or vegetable-flavored bread (like spinach bread or carrot loaf) and tear into crumbs to use for this recipe.
