AGLIO E OLIO - SPAGHETTI WITH GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL
This is so quick and easy and makes the most delicious light supper you'll ever eat! Please try it, it really is stunning! I've adapted this recipe from Australia's "Better Homes and Gardens" magazine, but it is a traditional Italian way of serving spaghetti. The quantities given serve 2, but just double them to serve 4.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil.
- Add 2 tablespoons salt.
- Add spaghetti.
- Cook for 14 minutes exactly, then drain.
- About half-way through the cooking time for the spaghetti, heat the olive oil in a large frypan over a medium heat.
- Add the garlic, anchovy and chilli - I pound these three ingredients in a mortar and pestle for a minute or so first, but this is not absolutely necessary.
- Cook the garlic, anchovy and chilli mixture in the oil for a couple of minutes until the garlic is soft but not brown.
- Reduce heat to low and add lemon juice, breadcrumbs, salt and half the parsley and stir to combine.
- With the pan still on the heat, add the drained spaghetti and toss with a pair of tongs or two forks to combine thoroughly.
- Serve sprinkled with grated or granulated parmesan cheese and the rest of the parsley.
