Garlicky creamy pasta
Ingredients
Pasta -1 cup
Garlic- 3-4 pods(chopped/ grated)
Milk- 1/4 cup
Cheese- 1/4 grated or 1-2 slices
Salt
Black Pepper
Mixed herbs
Butter- 2 tbsp
Method
Boil pasta according to instructions and sieve it (It should not be too mushy as we will be cooking it for another 5-10 minutes).
In a pan take butter , add chopped or grated garlic to it and stir for a while.
Add milk followed by pasta and keep stirring it for 5-7 minutes. Once milk starts boiling add your grated cheese or cheese slice to it.
You will notice that it will start getting thick. At this stage don’t leave it without stirring as cheese will stick to the bottom.
Add salt to it and when it is almost thicker in consistency.Turn off the heat and serve it hot.
Garnish it with black pepper and mixed herb or oregano.
The recipe looks easy to do so I'll give it a try. Hope I won't waste my ingredients! Hehe. I'm a huge fan of pasta and if I do master this, I plan to cook and give this to our neighbors during the holiday seasons! Yaay!
Do give a try and quite simple which I make for my kids.
Looking at the photo, I am feeling myself go hungry and craving for this pasta. And when I read through your recipe, I was surprised that it can be as simple as this. My sister and I would love to cook this one. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
Thank you.. I will say this is one of the easiest and quickest recipe .
this sounds yummy! not a big fan of cream based pasta, but i think the addition of garlic will spice it up nicely!
It is not very creamy and you can adjust the cheese in it.
My girl loves pasta and I've tried cooking this before. But I didn't add much garlic because I tried it out when she was 3 years old and she didn't quite like the taste of garlic then. Maybe I should try making it again and see her reaction now that she's older 😉
Danessa.. Try adding little garlic or garlic powder adjust it to your little girls taste buds.
We like cream based pasta, but maybe we will cut on the garlic. Not too much. Hehe. The kids do not like garlic too much.
Fred.. you can try with garlic powder it is not very strong.
Looks great! I'd add some prawns, grilled, with a squeeze of lemon!
Great idea Ling to top up with prawns to make it a complete meal.
This totally got me craving for pasta!! It looks so awesome!! 🙂
Give a try jason and it is a perfect meal.

I am trying to eat more pasta instead of rice. I'll try this out as it looks really tasty.
Do let me know Franc how it came up and was it tasty or not !
I'm used to buying and cooking with pre-made sauce that I've forgotten how easy it is to make creamy pasta!
Tiffany.. I actually avoid giving those packed sauce to my kids so this was a easier and healthy version for them.
This is like mac and cheese. This is really easy to prepare.
Yes you can say that it is quite similar to it and another reason to avoid packed pre made stuff.
My wife said she's gonna try this out this weekend. Thanks for sharing.

This is so easy. No need to make roux for the cream sauce! I would also add a some smoked salmon or shredded chicken to protein up!
