Full written recipe – Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 10–12 minutes
Serving: 2

Ingredients
WATER | पानी AS REQUIRED (FOR BOILING PASTA)
SALT | नमक 2 LARGE PINCHES
GARLIC | लहसुन 4 CLOVES
PARSLEY | पार्सले A HANDFUL
EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL | एक्स्ट्रा वर्जिन ऑलिव ऑयल 2–3 TBSP
RED CHILLI FLAKES | रेड चिली फ्लेक्स 1.5 TSP
PASTA | पास्ता 200 GMS
PASTA WATER | पास्ता का पानी 2 LADLES (OR AS REQUIRED)

Method:
Add hot water as required, then add a large pinch of salt. Cover with a lid and let it come to a proper boil on high flame.
Once the water is boiling well, add the spaghetti. Let it go in as it is, do not break it. It will slowly soften and settle into the water on its own.
While the pasta is cooking, slice the garlic thinly. Chop the parsley finely and keep it ready.
After about 3–4 minutes, place a pan on a high flame and let it heat up.
Once hot, add extra virgin olive oil. As soon as the oil warms slightly, reduce the flame to low.
Add the sliced garlic and cook it gently on a low flame until it softens.
This is where the garlic slowly releases its flavour into the oil, so don’t rush this step. After a couple of minutes, when the garlic has turned slightly soft and just begun to change colour, add red chilli flakes and stir well.
Once the garlic turns light golden, add two ladles of pasta water into the pan and stir vigorously. The oil and water will start emulsify (coming together) and form a light sauce. The water will also stop the cooking process of the garlic and prevent it from turning brown and bitter.
By now, the pasta should be done. Using tongs, transfer it directly into the sauce. Add the chopped parsley and salt to taste. Stir everything vigorously so the pasta gets nicely coated.
If necessary, add a little more pasta water to adjust the consistency and continue stirring until the sauce appears glossy and properly emulsified.
And that’s it, your delicious Spaghetti Aglio e Olio is ready in just 10 minutes, serve hot.

  5. I absolutely love this recipe. I usually add 2 year aged Parmigiano Reggiano (knows as the King of Cheeses) on top. Love the fusion flavor of garlic + Xtra vergin Olive oil + Starch of pasta, with a spicy kick of chilly flakes.
