Title: Macaronia Me Voutyro - Pasta with Brown Butter Sauce
Categories: Greek Pasta Sauce
Yield: 6 Servings

		Karen Mintzias
1	lb	Spaghetti or other pasta
1/2	lb	Butter
1/2	c	Kefalotyri or Parmesan (Grated)

Fill a large deep pot 3/4 full with water. Add salt and bring to a rolling boil. Add pasta slowly, without breaking the boil. Cook 10 minutes. Place a colander in sink and turn pasta into it. Rinse under hot running water, allowing the water to drain through the spaghetti.

Heat the butter in a small saucepan to a honey brown. Watch it carefully for these minutes; it burns quickly and suddenly. Return spaghetti to large pot and dribble hot butter over it. Sprinkle with half the cheese and toss gently to mix.

Transfer to a large ovenproof platter, sprinkle top with more cheese and bake for 10 minutes at 350 F. Serve hot.
