Buttered Noodles image

Made with penne and the parmesan, this is a meal in a pinch for me, needing maybe just a slice of toasted bread rubbed with garlic. Made with curly egg noodles, this is an ideal side for anything from a piece of a cooked turkey to a thick beef stew.

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups egg noodles or 1 1/2 cups penne
salt
1 tablespoon butter
flat leaf parsley
fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil. For this amount of pasta I would boil at least 2 quarts of water. When the water is boiling, add at least a tablespoon of salt and stir to dissolve.
  • Add the noodles to the boiling water. For the egg noodles, cook 5 minutes from the time the water comes back to a boil; for the penne, cook 8 minutes.
  • While the pasta is cooking, cut the butter into small bits, and chop the parsley.
  • Drain the pasta well, and transfer immediately to a large serving bowl. Toss with the butter (and optional parmesan).
  • Sprinkle with the parsley, and grind on lots of black pepper.
