Spaghetti with Oil and Garlic sauce with Parsley

Aglio ed olio con prezzemolo spaghetti. That's how you say it in Italian. Not that I speak Italian but it just sounds so authentic if one says it in Italian.

This is a very simple way of cooking spaghetti. No fuss at all. It's also the most delicious spaghetti I have ever tasted. Eat it by itself or with some bread, it is just simply divine.

Ingredients:

½ cup olive oil
4 cloves of garlic, whole or minced
1 cup of fresh parsley, chopped
500 grams of spaghetti
Salt
Pepper, chili or cayenne (if desired)

Directions:

Brown garlic, minced or whole, thoroughly in olive oil.
Stir the chopped parsley through. Add salt to taste.
Boil spaghetti 10 – 12 minutes in salted water or cook according to the packet’s instructions.
Drain very dry.
Add to oil, garlic and parsley mixture in the pan and turn until thoroughly moistened.
Add pepper (if desired) or serve pepper separately.
Turn out in platter and serve.

You can also use spaghettini, fettuccini or linguine instead of spaghetti.
