Tips

  • Do not rush the caramelization process; cook on low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • If onions are burning, add a bit of water and continue to stir.
  • Remove from heat quickly after adding pasta and cheese to prevent the cream and oil from separating.
  • Serve with a nice salad and garlic bread.
  • Pair with a crisp wine or a cold beer.
