- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat, add the onion and leave to saute for two or three minutes, until the onion becomes translucent. If the pan begins to dry add a splash of the stock.
- Add the garlic and the pasta and stir for a minute or so. Add the stock, Parmesan and a squeeze of lemon juice, and begin to simmer.
