Marmite and Pasta

This isn't my recipe, I saw it on a television program but it is so simple that it could be anyone's.  It is very easy and very inexpensive.  If you are a marmite lover you will already have all the ingredients in your store cupboard which means that it is a good standby if you have run out of everything else.  I cannot vouch for the taste of this dish as I am not a marmite lover - I just can't get past the smell!


You simply need 
Pasta
Butter
Marmite.



  • Put a fistful of dried pasta per person into a pan of water with a tiny touch of salt (remember that the marmite will be salty), bring to the boil and cook until the pasta is soft with just a hint of bite.  If using spaghetti use approx 120g per person.
  • In another pan melt some butter and marmite with a spoonful of the water the pasta is cooking in.  The quantities are up to you depending on the number of people and your individual taste.
  • When the pasta is cooked drain it well and toss with the marmite and butter mix.
