Fremgangsmåte

Bring a large pot of aggressively salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the spaghetti and cook for 1 to 2 minutes less than the package instructions, until al dente. Drain and reserve ¾ cup of the pasta water.

While the pasta cooks, make the sauce: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the lemon zest and juice. Add ½ cup of the pasta water and bring to a low simmer. Season with salt and pepper.

Add the pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Stir in the cream and the remaining ¼ cup (60 ml) pasta water if it is dry. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese. Serve with freshly ground black pepper and more Parmesan.
