Roast the garlic: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice off the top of the garlic head to expose the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap in foil. Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden brown. Let cool slightly, then squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins.

Cook the pasta until al dente
