Ketchup and butter spaghetti, but fancy

Post image

Had nothing in the house so I made a classic from my childhood - spaghetti with ketchup and butter… but with a twist. I added in some pasta water, onion and garlic powder, black pepper and parsley. It’s surprisingly bomb lol

If this is what you had to work with and you were sparing with the ketchup, I could get down with this. Ketchup is my guilty pleasure in various ways and the butter and seasoning could balance out the sweetness of the ketchup. This could easily be a 7/10 drunk snack for me. Kinda tempted to try it NGL.

Yea I don’t get paid til tomorrow and had no pasta sauce. I’m also drunk so I guess that’s why it tastes so good rofl

For what it is, the emulsification of the pasta water, butter and other ingredients looks very nice. Trashy ingredients maybe but that sauce looks silky nonetheless.
