You'll love the creamy tang of goat cheese paired with the earthy flavors of spinach in this delightful pasta dish!

1

Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add 250 grams of spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente, typically around 8-10 minutes.

2

While the pasta cooks, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

3

Add 2 cloves of minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

4

Introduce 200 grams of spinach to the skillet and cook for approximately 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until the spinach is wilted.

5

Once the pasta is done cooking, reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta water and then drain the spaghetti.

6

Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the spinach and garlic. Mix well.

7

Crumble 150 grams of goat cheese over the pasta and toss gently, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time to create a creamy sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

8

Finally, serve the spaghetti hot, garnishing with 50 grams of grated parmesan cheese on top.

• Add sun-dried tomatoes for an extra burst of flavor.
• Incorporate toasted pine nuts for a lovely crunch.
• Swap goat cheese for feta cheese for a different tang.

• Ensure not to overcook the spinach; you want it wilted but still vibrant.
• Reserve enough pasta water to achieve your desired sauce consistency.
• Taste and adjust the seasoning before serving to elevate flavors.
