Ingredients for 6 portions
1 package Angel's Hair or Vermicelli
¾ cup olive oil
8-10 garlic cloves finely sliced
1 cup leaves of flat parsley coarsely chopped
Coarse sea salt
Crushed red pepper flakes
Parmesan cheese shredded (I used Parmigiano Reggiano)
Put the water for the pasta to boil. Add the olive oil to a saucepan on low to medium heat and sauté the garlic for about 8-10 minutes, until brown. Set aside. In the meantime, cook the pasta al dente and strain it. To stop cooking, let some fresh water run on top of the pasta and strain it again. Put the pasta in a bowl, add the olive oil and garlic, season with salt to taste, add the parsley and stir. Serve warm with red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese.
