Quantity

  • 14 oz Spaghetti
  • 6 cloves Garlic
  • ½ cup Oro Di Bolsena
  • ½ tsp Chili Flakes
  • ¼ cup Flat-Leaf Parsley
  • 1 tbsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Black Pepper
  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Thinly slice the garlic and finely chop the flat-leaf parsley.

  2. 2

    Cook the pasta

    Bring a large pot of water to a boil, season it with the salt, and cook the spaghetti until about 2 minutes short of al dente.

  3. 3

    Infuse the oil

    While the pasta cooks, warm the Oro Di Bolsena in a wide skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring, until pale gold.

  4. 4

    Add the chili

    Stir the chili flakes into the oil and cook for 20–30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Finish the pasta

    Transfer the spaghetti directly to the skillet. Add 1/2 cup (120 ml) of reserved pasta water and toss vigorously over medium heat until the Oro Di Bolsena and water form a glossy sauce.

  6. 6

    Add the parsley

    Remove the skillet from the heat and fold in the flat-leaf parsley. Add a little more pasta water if the sauce is too tight.

  7. 7

    Season and serve

    Taste and finish with the optional black pepper. Serve immediately while the sauce is glossy.
