Steg för steg

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil.

   Cirka 5 min

   Kockens tips: The pasta water should be as salty as the sea to properly season the spaghetti.

2. 2

   Add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook according to package directions until al dente.

   Cirka 8 min

   Kockens tips: Reserve about 1 cup of the starchy pasta water before draining the spaghetti.

3. 3

   While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.

   Cirka 1 min

4. 4

   Add the sliced garlic to the skillet and cook gently for 3-5 minutes, until fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

   Cirka 4 min

   Kockens tips: Burnt garlic will taste bitter, so keep the heat low and watch it closely.

5. 5

   Stir in the red pepper flakes and cook for another 30 seconds.

   Kockens tips: Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preferred spice level.

6. 6

   Drain the cooked spaghetti, reserving some pasta water, and add it directly to the skillet with the garlic and oil mixture.

   Cirka 1 min

7. 7

   Toss the spaghetti with the sauce, adding a splash of the reserved pasta water as needed to create a light, emulsified sauce that coats the pasta.

   Cirka 1 min

   Kockens tips: The starchy pasta water helps the sauce cling to the spaghetti.

8. 8

   Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

   Kockens tips: Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before serving.

9. 9

   Garnish with fresh parsley before serving immediately.
