This quick breakfast pasta uses the starch in the cooking water to turn Kashar cheese (Turkish semi-hard cheese) into a smooth sauce without any additional fatty ingredients. Melting the cheese at the right temperature keeps the sauce emulsified and free of lumps. Its savory ingredients contain no added sweeteners, making it a diabetes-friendly breakfast option.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the pasta

10 min

Boil the pasta in plenty of salted water until al dente. Reserve a 200 ml measure of the cooking water before draining.

2

Make the sauce

5 min

Take the pan off the heat and add the butter and grated kashar cheese. Gradually pour in the reserved pasta water, whisking as you go.

3

Mix and serve

2 min

Toss the drained pasta with the sauce, sprinkle with black pepper and serve hot.

Reminder

Take the pan off the heat before adding the cheese. Melting cheese over boiling water can cause the fat to separate and the cheese to clump. Allergens: contains gluten (pasta) and dairy (kashar cheese).

Makarnayı 10 dakika yerine sadece 8 dakikada aceleyle süzdüm çünkü sosla birlikte biraz daha pişeceğini düşünmüştüm, kıvamı beklediğimden biraz daha sert ve fazlasıyla diri kaldı.

Peyniri kaynayan tavanın hemen üzerinde erittim ve sos ilk denememde hemen çirkin bir şekilde topaklandı, ama tavayı ocaktan alıp eklediğimde gerçekten pürüzsüz bir emülsiyon oluştuğunu gördüm.
