Ingredients
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
12 ounces dried spaghetti pasta
4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup water
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet or pot over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes until they are golden brown and caramelized.
Add the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and red pepper flakes to the onions. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the dried spaghetti pasta, vegetable broth, and water to the pot. Stir to combine and ensure the pasta is submerged in the liquid.
Increase heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 12-15 minutes until the pasta is cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and well combined.
Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top before serving.
