1. Step

In a large saucepan heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and saute until it becomes fragrant, around 1 minute.

2. Step

Stir in the ricotta cheese and milk. Heat the mixture gently, stirring continuously to prevent it from sticking or burning.

3. Step

Once the cheese and milk have combined into a smooth sauce, add the parmesan. Stir well until it is melted and incorporated.

4. Step

Season with salt, pepper, and dried basil. If you like your sauce with a bit of a kick, add chili flakes to taste.

5. Step

Stir in the chopped parsley and turn off the heat.

6. Step

Toss your cooked pasta directly in the sauce, ensuring it is evenly coated. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

7. Step

OPTIONAL: Sprinkle additional parmesan cheese or garnish with fresh basil leaves on top before serving.
