For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for added visual appeal and flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
12 mins
Begin by bringing a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package directions, usually around 12 minutes, until al dente. Once cooked, drain thoroughly, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
02
Step
6 mins
While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the sliced celery and onion and sauté until softened and slightly translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Introduce the chopped garlic and continue to sauté until fragrant, being careful not to burn it, about 1 minute.
03
Step
1 mins
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and white sugar until the sugar is dissolved. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the vegetables and stir well to combine. Let it simmer for about 1 minute.
04
Step
3 mins
Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat the noodles evenly, adding a splash of the reserved pasta water if needed to achieve the desired consistency. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, until the noodles are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Serve immediately and enjoy!
