Spaghetti with Olive Oil and Garlic - Spaghetti Aglio E Olio A web-exclusive recipe from Italian Cooking and Living|
1 pound spaghetti
salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin
olive oil
2 dried chili peppers, crumbled
4 or 5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
freshly ground black pepper
Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil; add the spaghetti and salt
and cook until al dente; drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water.
Meanwhile in a sauté pan large enough to accommodate
the spaghetti later, heat the olive oil over medium heat, add the chili and
garlic, and cook until the garlic becomes golden, about one minute. Be careful
not to let the garlic brown.
Toss the spaghetti in the pan with the oil; don't introduce
any water yet. Once the oil and spaghetti have intermingled, add the cooking
water; sauté for one minute to thicken the sauce, and serve immediately,
with some freshly ground black pepper if desired. Serves 4
