This simple pasta dish comes together in just 15 minutes, making it ideal for a fast weeknight meal. It uses only a few key ingredients: angel hair pasta, a packet of creamy garlic and herb Boursin cheese, and sliced grape tomatoes. The result is a luxuriously smooth and flavourful sauce that coats the pasta beautifully, finished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a vibrant touch.

Ingredients

1 pound angel hair pasta
1 (5.2 ounce) package garlic and herb cheese spread (such as Boursin®)
0.75 cup grape tomatoes, sliced
chopped fresh parsley for garnish
0.5 cup reserved pasta water, or as needed

Method

Collect all the required ingredients.
Boil a large pot of lightly salted water. Add the angel hair pasta and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring now and then, until it is al dente.
Drain the cooked pasta, making sure to save 3/4 cup of the starchy cooking water.
Place 1/2 cup of the reserved water into a saucepan. Whisk in the Boursin cheese until you have a smooth sauce. Stir in the sliced tomatoes and cook for no more than 2 minutes. Toss the drained pasta into the sauce to coat it thoroughly. Finish with a garnish of chopped fresh parsley.
