  1. This is such a delicious dish 😋 My daughter and son in law made this excellent dish. They learn to prepare this dish and other tasty plates at a Italian cooking class. They also added fresh Italian parsley on the side as an option 😃

  2. Cant wait to make this soon for me i love pasta soooooooooo much i never had pasta aglio e oilo before perfect for my after office meals

  3. don't drain it , just trf it directly to the pan with the oil and garlic. Also when adding cheese its off the heat . Enjoy!! Best pasta

  4. Save yourself a couple steps/ time and simply remove cooked pasta with tongs – straight from the cooking water -and into the pot.

  5. The only thing you may want to try (it saves a few seconds) is, reserve some water the pasta cooks in, but when the pasta is done, don't pour the whole pot of pasta into the colander, but just pour the water out, but leave some water in the pot with the pasta, then put that into your hot pan with the oil and garlic (once you do it a couple of times you'll get the knack. One last thing, I swirl the pasta around in the pan for a couple of minutes with the heat on med-low to get that flavor you talked about into the pasta.

  6. One of my very favorite pasta dishes while in Italy! I miss being there, so I am glad to now have the recipe! Looks delicious and not too difficult to make.

  7. I never comment on these but I had to on this one! It is DELICIOUS!! So easy to make! I made it last night after working in the yard all day and wanted to do something easy and quick! Thanks for this recipe! I also ordered your recipe book too!

  8. Awesome pasta, I'm making it from time to time. Just use more garlic (whole head), sliced thinly, parsley, butter and sprinkle some lemon juice to balance rich flavors. 😋
    PS As fas as i understand Italians usually don't drain pasta, they just scoop it from the pot directly. 😊

  9. I don't get the garlic thing. It's such an antisocial food. No one wants to be around someone with garlic breath. I find most of these recipes to be unusable. I know we can leave garlic out but I just don't understand the obsession when the vast majority of people have to avoid the stuff.

  10. After trying this spaghetti recipe in store bought pouches, my wife, Vincenzina, and I have been looking for this recipe for some time but I've noticed you cut your garlic fairly big. Isn't that a bit too much when one bites into these large garlic pieces?
    Your comment would greatly be appreciated.
