Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup roughly chopped (not too small) marinated artichokes in oil, with 1 ½ tbsp. of the oil
  • 2 packets of Boursin (I like the garlic and herb one but any Boursin will do!)
  • 2 cloves of garlic, whole and peeled
  • Splash of water - approx 50ml 
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • Juice + Zest of 1 lemon
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • 250g Spaghetti

To serve

  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Freshly grated Parmesan

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200c. Place the boursin cheeses, artichokes, garlic, water, lemon zest + juice, olive oil, and salt in a baking dish, pop in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, boil spaghetti until al dente, making sure to reserve a cup of the pasta water.
  3. After 30 minutes, remove from the oven. Smoosh the garlic with a fork and stir the whole thing well. Add pasta water to loosen it. Tip in the cooked spaghetti and toss well, adding more water as it needs to come together and be delicious and glossy. Add the chilli flakes, Taste, and adjust seasoning.
  4. Top with grated Parmesan and some chopped parsley.

Notes

This is also very good with green olives added to the tray – just give them a rough chop.
