Ingredients

  • 280 g Spaghetti
  • 1 whole clove Garlic
  • 70 -100 ml 1/4 cup - good quality Olive oil
  • For the uninitated: 1/2 tsp flakes or 1 dried minced chilli. For heat lovers as many as you can handle! Peperoncino

Instructions

  •  
  • Cook the spaghetti according the the instructions on the packet or according to my post on cooking pasta.
  • While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a small pot on low heat with the garlic clove and peperoncino in it.
  • Lightly brown the garlic, but don't over-cook it.  The flakes of peperoncino should stay red and NOT turn dark brown or black!
  • Remove the garlic clove from the oil.
  • Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and mix it with the oil. Simple as that!
