Just been looking for an old thread with this on, but I'm getting a service down message.

Anyone have a recipe?

At a guess, I'd say:

cook spag.
gently fry some garlic in olive oil.
drain spag.

combine the two.

TA DAAAA!

or is there more to it than that? Smile

The secret in nice garlicky spaghetti is putting slices in oil, and frying them but without letting them brown. You can then take them out and the oil is lovely and flavoursome. I usually also add some chilli flakes, capers and pinenuts to the dish. hmmm. tasty.

We use whole cloves (about 1 1/2 head for 2 people), cooked very very gently (about 1/2 hour) on very very low heat in olive oil. Then mix with speg, crumble in some cheese. And the vampires stay away.

Loads and loads of thin slices cooked slowly until golden in lots of olive oil and with a sprinkle of dried chilli flakes.

Tossed in garlic butter is also lovely.

Melt a knob of butter with a 2-3 cloves sliced garlic. When foaming/melted, add in cooked spaghetti & toss. Then add a bug handful of fresh chopped basil. Toss some more, grind some black pepper over the top, then add a small handful of grated Parmesan. Delish! You can use other fresh herbs but basil is the nicest Smile
