I made a half batch of this to go alongside some steak & vegies using fresh parsley, basil, oregano & thyme. I love the subtleness of the lemon flavour with the herbs, very simple way to jazz up the humble spaghetti.

I made this with a little extra butter (about 1.5 tbsp) and only using fresh parsley for the herbs. I would not try this with dried herbs as I think the flavour would not be anywhere near as good. It was quite good with a subtle flavour. I will definitely be making this again.

I used a combo of whole-wheat, spinach and regular spaghetti. Used the herbs suggested, only dried. It was okay. It seemed like it needed some oil. I like my husband's recipe better. I might try it again with some added oil and see if it changes the flavor.
