Kitchen appliances and utensils: grater, bowl, measuring cup, tablespoon, pan with a lid, colander, microwave, spatula.

Ingredients

Step cooking

1. We put a pot of water on the stove and bring to a boil. When the water boils, add 2 tbsp. l vegetable oil. Thanks to vegetable oil, pasta does not stick together during cooking.
   
2. Next, fall asleep pasta and cook until tender. Please note that you do not need to salt the pasta during cooking. Most pasta made from durum wheat needs to be cooked for 6-8 minutes, but sometimes this time may vary slightly. Therefore, always carefully read the cooking method indicated on the package and follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
   
3. While the pasta is boiling, send the butter to the microwave so that it melts. We crumble the bouillon cube into a small bowl and pour 100 ml of boiling water.
   
4. Rub the cream cheese on a coarse grater.
   
5. When the pasta is ready, drain the water from them or put it in a colander, and then put it back into the pan.
   
6. Then salt the pasta using a diluted broth.
   
7. Add melted butter to them.
   
8. Pour the grated cheese and mix thoroughly.
   
9. We lay out the finished dish on portioned plates and serve it hot. Such pasta will be an excellent side dish for baked or fried fish, meat chops and meatballs. In addition, pasta with cream cheese goes well with vegetable salads. Enjoy your meal.
   

Useful Tips

• When choosing pasta, give preference to those that have the mark "From durum wheat" on the package. Such pasta does not boil and do not stick together.
• Remember that quality pasta cannot be too cheap. Also, the quality of pasta can be judged by the number of damaged or broken pieces in a pack.
• When choosing processed cheese, be sure to carefully read the label. It should not have the inscription “Cheese product”, since this indicates the content of vegetable fats in the product.
• Carefully read the expiration date and composition of the product. It should contain only dairy ingredients, if it is a classic processed cheese without additives.
• If you buy processed cheese with ham, check if it is even in the composition. It is possible that it could be replaced with flavorings.
