Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the 8 oz spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water before draining.

  2. Step 2

    In a large skillet, heat the 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add the drained spaghetti and toss to coat.

  3. Step 3

    Remove the skillet from heat. Add the 1/2 cup parmesan and 1 oz truffle shavings, tossing quickly. Add reserved pasta water a splash at a time until the sauce is creamy and coats the pasta.

  4. Step 4

    Season with the 1 tsp salt (or to taste) and sprinkle with the 2 tbsp chopped parsley. Serve immediately with extra parmesan if desired.

  5. Step 5

    Garnish with a few extra truffle shavings and a sprig of parsley for a beautiful presentation.
