Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your spaghetti with garlic and cumin. Look for ripe tomatoes, firm zucchini, and fragrant garlic and cumin.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the vegetables, make sure to give them enough space in the pan so that they can cook evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will steam instead of sautéing and will become mushy.
- Cook the spaghetti al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian, and it refers to the ideal doneness of pasta. Spaghetti should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked spaghetti will be mushy and bland.
- Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is an essential ingredient in Italian cuisine, and it adds a delicious flavor to spaghetti with garlic and cumin. Look for a good quality extra virgin olive oil that is fruity and peppery.
- Season to taste: Always taste your food before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may need to add more salt, pepper, or cumin to taste.
Conclusion:
Spaghetti with garlic and cumin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover spaghetti. With its simple ingredients and bold flavors, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
