PASTA WITH YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta according to package instructions; drain well and reserve ½ cup of pasta water.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the pine nuts and cook until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
• Heat the remaining olive oil in the skillet, add the garlic and 1 tablespoon parsley and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Turn the heat to low, add the yogurt and salt and use a whisk to combine and lightly warm up the yogurt. Remove from heat.
• Transfer the cooked spaghetti to the skillet and toss with the yogurt sauce. Add some pasta water to thin out the sauce, if desired.
• Serve with toasted pine nuts, remaining parsley and chopped mint.

PASTA WITH LEMON HERB YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Set the yogurt in a sieve set over a bowl to strain and come to room temperature, about 1 hour.
• Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Season generously with salt. Add fettuccine and cook until al dente, about 2 minutes less than the box instructions. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water.
• Combine feta, yogurt, garlic, lemon zest and juice, olive oil and half the herbs in a large bowl, then season with salt and pepper. Mix until well blended.
• Add the hot cooked pasta and toss to coat. Add some pasta water until sauce is at desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning. Transfer to serving bowls and garnish with Pecorino-Romano and the remaining chopped herbs.

SPAGHETTI WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND YOGURT

Steps:

• Combine oil, onions, thyme, bay leaf, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large saute pan; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender and golden brown, about 1 1/2 hours. If the pan becomes dry, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent onions from burning.
• Add wine, and bring to a boil, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon. When wine has evaporated, remove pan from heat; discard thyme sprigs and bay leaf.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add pasta; cook until al dente. Drain. Stir pasta, parsley, and 1 teaspoon salt into onions; season with pepper.
• Divide pasta among 6 bowls. Top each serving with 1/3 cup yogurt, drizzle with oil, and season with pepper.
