Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

• totale tijd: 5 minutes

Ingrediënten

1 tsp kosher salt (for pasta water)

1 lb dried spaghetti

1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

8 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced

1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

1/2 cup minced fresh parsley

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructies

Cook the Spaghetti

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package instructions.

Prepare the Sauce

Heat the olive oil in a large, light-colored pan over medium heat.

Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to turn golden (about 1-2 minutes).

Stir in the crushed red pepper flakes and cook for an additional 30 seconds.

Turn off the heat.

Combine Pasta and Sauce

Add the spaghetti directly from the pot into the pan with the garlic and chili oil.

Stir in a few tablespoons of the pasta water as needed to coat the spaghetti evenly.

Finish and Serve

Toss in the minced parsley and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Mix well to combine, letting the pasta sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavors.

Serve warm, with extra Parmesan on the side.
