Ingredients
- 1 pound spaghetti dry
- 4 tablespoons (2 oz) butter unsalted
- 20 garlic minced or smashed in a mortar and pestle, medium cloves
- 4 teaspoons oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce reduced-sodium or shoyu
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce
- 1 ounce Parmesan Cheese or pecorino romano, grated
- scallion thinly sliced, optional
Instructions
- In a 12-inch (30-cm) skillet, bring 1 1/2 inches (4 cm) of water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta, stir a few times to make sure it’s not clumping, and cook, stirring occasionally, until just shy of al dente (about 2 minutes short of the recommended cook time on the package).
- While the noodles are cooking, melt the butter in a wok or saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and fish sauce and stir to combine. Remove from the heat.☞ TESTER TIP: If you choose to add shrimp, as suggested in the headnote, stir-fry them with the garlic. This may increase the cooking time by a minute or two.
- Using tongs, transfer the cooked pasta to the garlic sauce, along with whatever water clings to it. Increase the heat to high, add the cheese to the wok, and stir and toss vigorously until the sauce is creamy and emulsified, about 30 seconds. (If the sauce looks too watery, let it keep reducing. If it looks greasy, splash some more cooking water into it and let it re-emulsify.)
- Stir in the scallions, if using, and serve immediately.
