Pasta Aglio e Olio

Coming from and Italian back round my dishes are largely a reflection of this, but if I see or taste something I like, whether Italian or not I try to re-create it add something to and make it my own. Cooking should be simple and as a result it will make your cooking experience a pleasurable one. The simplest pasta anyone can make is "Pasta Aglio e Olio" translation: Garlic and oil.

-4 tables spoons of good extra virgin olive oil
-2-3 large cloves of crushed garlic
-250 grams (1/2 package) of cooked spaghetti (as per package instructions) "al dente" is best.

Saute the crushed garlic in the oil until very lightly golden. Add your cooked pasta to this oil mixture and continue to cook for another 2 minutes. Voila! Add a sprinkle of finely chopped parsley it adds a nice color a make a wonderful presentation. This is the easiest pasta you can make and the oil mixture is essentially the start to every other type of sauce for pasta.
