aglio oglio!

new pasta recipe!
but it will be a little incomplete (no measurements)

this is my sister's version of aglio oglio.
simple, spicy and very delicious!

what you need: (for a serving for four person)
Lots of garlic (about on whole garlic, the more the merrier!) peeled and chopped finely.
Dried parsley
Dried basil (about one tablespoon each, alter accordingly la)
(can get from any supermarket or ingredient shop)
Dried chili (about 5 pieces) soaked it hot water, seeds removed and pound it using the mortar and pestle to get small shreds.
olive oil
1-2 Sausages, thinly sliced (i recommend the AYAMAS FRANKFURTER with mushroom. the bigger types. there are 6 pieces per pack. and about less than 4 bucks each pack)
*alternative is to use bacon*
canned button mushroom, thinly sliced
fine salt
black pepper
capsicum, sliced (if desired)

here is how to cook!
cook the spaghetti (follow the instructions on the packet)
heat some oil and fry the sausages and mushroom until cooked. set aside
heat some oil, fry the dried chili, spices (basil and parsley) and the garlic until fragrant.
put the spaghetti in to a large bowl.
add the sausages and mushroom
add the fried garlic, chili and spices
sprinkle salt and pepper to taste
mix it well.
keep tasting it until its just nice
you can keep adding spices also, and alter according to taste.

very very simple! can cook in about 30 minutes!



enjoy! =)
