Spaghetti with parsley cream

This dish is very easy to make and the result tastes soft, charming and fresh. With the short preparation time of some 15 minutes it's a good one to make even if you're in a hurry. Capellini are just as suitable as the good old spaghetti.

Ingredients (x2:)
175 g spaghetti or capellini
15 g parmesan
60 g crème fraîche
1 medium-sized onion
4 tablespoons chopped parsley
salt
black pepper

Preparation:
Chop the onion and put it into a pan with along with a bit of water. Add the cream on the pan and mix to form a crema out of it and add salt and black pepper. Heat up the crema. Chop the parsley and add it into the crema. Cook the pasta in salted water and when ready, pour the water off and serve it with the parsley cream and grated parmesan.

Spaghetti with zucchini and garlic

I actually find tagliatelle to be even more suitable for this, but this time I made it with spaghetti (integrali). You can prepare this dish in less than 20 minutes, so it's great for when you can't take a long time to cook. But no matter of situation it is a tasty, simple dish and heavenly for garlic lovers.

Ingredients (x2):
125 g tagliatelle or spaghetti
1 zucchina
3-4 cloves garlic
basil (fresh or dry)
salt
black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
15 g margarine
parmesan

Preparation:
Put the pasta to boil. Grind the garlic. Grate the zucchina. Fry the garlic on a pan and when it has obtained some colour, pour the grated zucchina on the pan and fry it for max. 2 minutes at high heat. Add salt, black pepper and basil into the vegetables. Add the margarine. Blend the ready pasta with the sauce and serve with grated parmesan or parmesan flakes.
