While cooking pasta put a small amount of oil in to keep the noodles from sticking. If you have drained the pasta already, using oil or butter will keep the noodles from sticking to each other and the pan.

Why should cooking oil be added to cooking water when cooking pasta?
No, oil does not keep the pasta from sticking together. The oil has a much higher viscosity and will just float on top. However, the oil can serve a purpose in cooking pasta. If the pot of pasta is left on high heat, the oil will prevent the pasta from foaming and then eventually boiling over. When pastas are cooked, the starches are released into the water and begin to stick together. The oil allows the starchy particles to slide past each other instead of sticking together. An alternative is to periodically stir the pasta as it is cooking to keep it from clumping together.
