I saw this on a tv programme and it was so simple I didn't even bother writing it down. Am I lazy blogging such a basic recipe. maybe so but today spent 4 hrs looking for an evening gown for friday and could sleep on a chickens lip by tea time.
Chop a red chilli reasonabley finely
Cover the bottem of a frying pan with extra virgin olive oil, ( a good one) and add the chilli
In a seperate pan start boiling some pasta in salted water. Long is best - spagetti, linguine etc
Whilst the pasta is cooking turn the heat on under the oil and chilli. be very careful not to let the oil heat up to much as it will burn. as soon as you see a few tiny bubbles forming turn the heat of and let the chilli infuse
Just before the pasta is ready slightly heat the oil again then switch off. Add the pasta to the oil with tongs so that a very small amount of cooking water is taken but not much. Toss all together and serve.
No parmesan is required!!!
If you put to much oil in it could end up a bit greasy at the end
Time taken 15 minutes
Effort 1/5
End result 3.5/5
Its such a simple dish I couldn't give it a higher score but its really tasty and will make it a regular simple supper
