Spaghetti aglio olio

Simple spaghetti aglio olio where garlic, olive oil, and clean flavor make the whole dish. Minimalism on a plate. 🍝✨

Spaghetti aglio olio with garlic, olive oil, parsley, parmesan, and Pink Greens microgreens

Ingredients

  • Spaghetti
  • Garlic
  • Olive oil
  • Chili
  • Parsley
  • Parmesan
  • Pink Greens microgreens

Method

  1. Cook the spaghetti in well-salted water until al dente and reserve a little pasta water.
  2. Slice the garlic thinly and finely chop the chili.
  3. Warm the olive oil in a pan, add the garlic and chili, and let them slowly release their aroma.
  4. Do not burn the garlic; it should stay golden and gentle.
  5. Add the cooked spaghetti and a splash of pasta water, then toss until a light glossy emulsion forms.
  6. Stir in chopped parsley and season with salt and black pepper if needed.
  7. Serve on a plate, add parmesan, and finish with Pink Greens microgreens.

✨ Pink tip

Aglio olio is all about calm heat. Let the garlic gently perfume the oil, then use pasta water to bring everything together so the spaghetti stays glossy, juicy, and never dry.
