It's pasta with garlic and olive oil and lots of Parmesan cheese. After a really busy day testing recipes, that's what I love to make. A lot of chefs call it Midnight Spaghetti because they make it at midnight. So, the first thing I need is lots of garlic. So, I've got eight cloves of garlic. I know it sounds like a lot for a pound of pasta but it's really worth it and when garlic cooks actually in the olive oil, it actually gets a little bit sweet. So, I'm just going to slice them. The proper name of this is what Italians call spaghetti and I'm sure my Italian accent is just terrible but that's basically it. It actually means spaghetti with olive oil and garlic. Sounds much more though. So, third of a cup of olive oil. It's actually quite a bit because the garlic's going to sort of simmer in it. Eight cloves of garlic thinly sliced right into the oil. Okay, that's going to cook for about 2 minutes. Just until it starts to color but not brown. You don't want it burnt. Okay. Next is, I like a little heat in this. So, I'm going to put about a half a teaspoon of red pepper flakes in. You can make this hot or not hot as you like. So, this is the curious thing about this recipe is I'm going to add one and 1/ 2 cups of pasta water. While the pasta was boiling, I actually reserve some of the pasta water. So, it's hot and it's got a little bit of that starch in it and what it's going to do is really moisten and thicken this pasta. Teaspoon of salt. You can always add more salt later and this is going to cook away for about five minutes and the garlic is going to get really tender and the sauce is going to be delicious. In the meantime, I need fresh parsley. I need about a cup of fresh parsley Okay, that's the chopped parsley. Wait til you see how fast this is. Got the pasta. Just going to add it to the sauce. Right into the pan and all this pasta is going to absorb the garlic and the olive oil just let it cook together just for a few minutes so this is just one pound of pasta spaghetti I cooked it according to the package which is about 12 minutes for this kind of pasta and as this sits in the pasta water with the garlic it just really absorbs all the flavors the salt and the red pepper and all of that sweet garlic you can really see it's absorbed. Okay. About a half a cup of good parsley, and a cup of Parmesan cheese. I mean, that's gotta be good. And just toss it all together and that's what's known as Midnight Spaghetti. Pasta with garlic and olive oil. This smells so amazing. What a great dinner this is. Little bit of parsley, little parmesan, Oh my god, I can't wait to taste this. The garlic smells amazing and I mean, how easy was this?
