Recipe: Macaronia Me Voutyro - Pasta with Brown Butter Sauce
For 6 Persons
Category: Greek, Pasta, Side dish
1 lb Spaghetti or other pasta
1/2 lb Butter
1/2 c Kefalotyri or Parmesan
-(Grated)
Fill a large deep pot 3/4 full with water. Add salt and bring to a rolling
boil. Add pasta slowly, without breaking the boil. Cook 10 minutes. Place
a colander in sink and turn pasta into it. Rinse under hot running water,
allowing the water to drain through the spaghetti.
Heat the butter in a small saucepan to a honey brown. Watch it carefully
for these minutes; it burns quickly and suddenly. Return spaghetti to
large pot and dribble hot butter over it. Sprinkle with half the cheese
and toss gently to mix.
Transfer to a large ovenproof platter, sprinkle top with more cheese and
bake for 10 minutes at 350 F. Serve hot.
