Spaghetti Aglio E Olio

I love Italian cuisine and always try to experiment and try out new dishes. This one is the simplest yet yummiest spaghetti recipe if love garlic flavor.

Very easy to make and taste delicious. Just 5 ingredients and you are done. I make this whenever I feel tired or not in a heavy cooking mood. This is my goto recipe to eat something simple but delicious.

Do give it a try and please leave comments or suggestion if any down below. Happy cooking everyone!!!!!

Ingredients:

2 handful of spaghetti (for 2 people)
3 big garlic cloves - thinly sliced
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1 tbsp roughly chopped parsley
salt and black pepper to taste

Recipe:

1. In a non-stick pan add olive oil and garlic. Over medium heat, cook garlic until it barely starts to sizzle out. Once it starts to sizzle lower the heat to medium-low and let the garlic infuse in the oil slowly. This process take around 10 -15 minutes.

2. Once garlic are lightly browned, switch off the heat and add a ladle of water in it to stop the further cooking and browning of garlic.

3. While your garlic is cooking, on other side take a large cooker or utensil and fill it water. Let it heat until water comes to a boil. Add spaghetti once water starts boiling and sprinkle some salt. Cover the lid and let it cook until al dente.
4. Once spaghetti is cooked, strain it. Do not wash the spaghetti with water.
5. Mix spaghetti with garlic infused oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

6. Server hot with roughly chopped parsley and cheese on top. I served creamy mashed potatoes and baked sweet potato fries on side.
