Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
- At the same time, heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic to the hot oil; cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in imitation crab and heat for 2 minutes.
- Begin cooking rotini. Add to the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
- While the pasta is cooking, stir half-and-half and parsley into the crab sauce; bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer crab sauce, adding pasta water as necessary, while pasta is finishing.
- Drain pasta.
- Mix Parmesan cheese into crab sauce and heat until melted, about 2 minutes. Serve over pasta.

SPICY CRAB LINGUINE WITH MUSTARD, CRèME FRAîCHE AND HERBS
This pasta dish is impressive, but it is barely any work at all, ideal for an impromptu gathering. The sauce is just warm crème fraîche, highly seasoned, along with a shower of herbs, and just enough green chile to cut the richness. (If you don't want chile, increase the mustard and black pepper, and add lime zest.) Obviously, you'll want the freshest sweetest crabmeat available. Substitute lobster if you can't get crab, or use small shrimp, briefly cooked in butter, and feel free to vary the herbs - basil, mint, dill or chervil would be most welcome.
