That looks good! When you say pasta water, do you mean the water that the pasta is being boiled with or ?? Do you also boil the pasta with salt and olive oil also?

It's the water used to boil the pasta. The starch in the water stabilizes and thickens the sauce.

You should also always salt your water as well though.
