Delightful Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

Spaghetti Aglio e Olio is a classic Italian dish that is simple yet bursting with flavor. This recipe highlights the beauty of garlic and olive oil, complemented by a touch of chili flakes for a gentle kick.

Ingredients:

400g spaghetti
6 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
120ml extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp red chili flakes (adjust to taste)
Salt, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)

Instructions:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente.
While the spaghetti is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced garlic to the skillet, sautéing gently until it becomes fragrant and golden. Be careful not to let it burn, as this could result in a bitter taste.
Once the garlic is golden, add the red chili flakes and stir for about 30 seconds to release their flavor.
When the spaghetti is ready, reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and then drain the rest.
Add the drained spaghetti directly to the skillet with the garlic and oil mixture.
Toss the spaghetti in the oil mixture, adding a little reserved pasta water as needed to help coat the noodles evenly.
Season with salt to taste, and remove from heat.
Transfer the spaghetti to serving plates or bowls, garnishing with chopped parsley and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Spaghetti Aglio e Olio!
