Οδηγίες

Slice your onion, mince that garlic (use fresh please), and measure out all your seasoning. Bring a cup of cream or coconut milk to room temperature.

Heat 2 tbsp butter + 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium low heat. Add in the onions and let them cook for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and jammy. If they start sticking, add a splash of water.

While your onions are caramelizing, boil a pot of salted water and cook the pasta until al dente. Drain, but save some of that pasta water.

When the onions are deeply golden, stir in your minced garlic and all the seasonings. Let it all bloom for a minute, then add the chili crisp and saute for a minute. Pour in your cream (or coconut milk). Let it simmer for a few minutes then add the grated Parmesan cheese.

Add your pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. Use that reserved pasta water to loosen things up if it’s too thick — you’re going for silky, not sticky.

Serve hot with an extra spoon of chili crisp on top for a spicy kick and maybe a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
