  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 8 garlic cloves finely chopped.
  • 1/2 tbsp chili flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup fresh parsley finely chopped.

Instructions
 

  • Begin by bringing a generously salted pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and follow the instructions on the package for cooking time. Before draining, remember to save at least 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water.

  • Pour in ½ cup of the reserved pasta water, then add the cooked spaghetti, chili flakes, and season with salt and black pepper.
  • Introduce the chopped parsley and grated Parmesan, and gently combine everything over low heat for 2-3 minutes.
  • Serve, garnished with extra Parmesan and parsley as desired.
