Method
  1. ­ Boil spaghetti in salted water until al dente. Drain and put aside. Sauté garlic in olive oil for 30 seconds. Add spaghetti and stir well.

Healthy Eating Tips:
*Chef Din suggests replacing fresh milk with whipping cream. This option can reduce total fat by 30g per serving. **Usually children do not enjoy fish because of the fishy smell. Chef Din suggests the fish to be sliced into smaller pieces and garnished with colourful vegetables. This interesting presentation will attract children’s attention.
