For the Garlic Butter Sauce
- 4 tbsp butter
- 10 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1½ tbsp oyster sauce
- 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp fish sauce
- 1/2 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp sugar
- ½ tsp black pepper
For the Noodles

Instructions
- Boil the Noodles
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, according to package instructions.
- Drain the noodles, toss with 1 tablespoon of neutral oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.
- Make the Garlic Butter Sauce
- In a large pan or wok, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over low-medium heat.
- Add the finely minced garlic and sauté for 2–3 minutes until aromatic and lightly golden (avoid browning).
- Stir in the oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and black pepper.
- Let the sauce simmer gently for about 1 minute to bring the flavors together.
- Toss the Noodles
- Add the cooked noodles to the pan.
- Toss everything together over low-medium heat for 1–2 minutes until the noodles are evenly coated and glossy.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed — add more soy sauce or fish sauce for saltiness, sugar for sweetness, or black pepper for extra heat.
- Garnish and Serve
- Plate the noodles immediately while hot.
- Finish with freshly grated parmesan cheese and chopped chives on top.
