3–4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
14 ounces tagliatelle
Salt
1 quart plain whole-milk yogurt at room temperature
1 teaspoon sumac
Preparation
Step 1
In a large saucepan, fry the onions in the oil, covered, over very low heat, until golden, stirring every so often. Add the garlic and cook moments more, until it begins to color. Turn off the heat. Heat through when you are ready to serve.

Boil the tagliatelle in salted water until done al dente.
Step 3
Beat the yogurt with a little salt. Serve the tagliatelle directly on the plates. Pour the yogurt on top and sprinkle with fried onions and a dusting of sumac.
