lebanese spaghetti

This creamy pasta with white yogurt sauce also known as Lebanese spaghetti is the perfect substitute for Alfredo sauce. It&#039;s creamy, tangy &amp; easy to make!

Pasta with Yogurt Sauce

spaghetti

olive oil (divided)

pine nuts

garlic

parsley (divided)

greek yogurt

salt

mint (chopped)

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.

I was having a hard time imagining how pasta and yoghurt would go together, so I gave it a try....I'm absolutely blown away. Wow. This will most definitely become a quick lunch/snack for me as we'll have the ingredients at home 99% of the time. Thank you, absolutely loving this

Wow, I’m obsessed! So easy and so good!! Would go perfectly with some  spicy grilled chicken breast!

I made this dish and added bite sized roasted eggplant and some chilli flakes. It was AMAZING!! 
Yummy thanks for the recipe.

I'm from Syria, and we also have this as an occasional dish. And, yes it is delicious and very simple to make. One difference from your recipe is that we don't heat the yogurt or saute the garlic. we use minced garlic and uncooked yogurt. But, I will try to make your recipe for a change. And, who knows we might have a winner here!

Just made this delicious pasta and added chicken and peas. The sauce is amazing. I made it with goat yogurt and gluten-free pasta! It’s a winner!!!

Loved this recipe…and so did my Lebanese fiancé! I can (and do) get labneh at the supermarket and used it as the base instead of the yogurt. Using Yumna’s suggestion, I thinned out the labneh with the pasta water, and it was the creamiest and smoothest sauce with the best flavors that only labneh can offer!  This is now a go-to recipe as I always have labneh in the fridge and some kind of pasta in the pantry.  Thank you Yumma!

Delicious recipe!easy to make with simple ingredients!and the taste SO GOOD
