Peel and finely dice the garlic. Wash the basil leaves, shake dry, and roughly chop. Combine both in a saucepan with the water, cream, pasta, salt, and pepper. Mix well and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer the pasta, covered, for 10-12 minutes. Stir occasionally to distribute the liquid.
