SPAGHETTI AGLIO E OLIO

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt
1 pound dried spaghetti, such as DeCecco
1/3 cup good olive oil
8 large garlic cloves, cut into thin slivers
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons of salt and the pasta and cook according to the directions on the package. Set aside 1 1/2 cups of the pasta cooking water before you drain the pasta.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a pot large enough to hold the pasta, such as a 12-inch saute pan or a large, shallow pot. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until it just begins to turn golden on the edges-don't overcook it! Add the red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds more. Carefully add the reserved pasta-cooking water to the garlic and oil and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by about a third.
  • Add the drained pasta to the garlic sauce and toss. Off the heat, add the parsley and Parmesan and toss well. Allow the pasta to rest off the heat for 5 minutes for the sauce to be absorbed. Taste for seasoning and serve warm with extra Parmesan on the side.

SPAGHETTI WITH GARLICKY BREAD CRUMBS AND ANCHOVIES



Spaghetti With Garlicky Bread Crumbs and Anchovies image

This is a take on a classic dish from Southern Italy that tosses pasta with toasted, seasoned bread crumbs called pangrattatto. In this version, the bread crumbs are sautéed in olive oil with garlic and anchovies until golden and crisp, and the pasta is coated with egg yolks, hot sauce and Asian fish sauce for creaminess and depth. You can make the bread crumbs up to 3 hours ahead; longer than that and you risk letting them go soggy. Use good-quality bread crumbs here, either homemade or purchased from a bakery. The next best choice is panko, Japanese bread crumbs that you can find in large supermarkets. If you have any of the pangrattatto mixture left over, store it in the refrigerator and give it a brief sauté to revive it before using.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
12 anchovies, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup good dried bread crumbs
Black pepper and kosher salt, as needed
1 pound spaghetti
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce (optional)
1 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco, or to taste
1/2 cup roughly chopped parsley
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, warm oil. Add anchovies, garlic and red pepper flakes; cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Stir in bread crumbs and cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Season liberally with black pepper, and a little salt if needed.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package instructions; drain well, reserving some of the pasta water (about 1/2 cup is plenty).
  • In a large, preferably warmed bowl, stir together egg yolks, fish sauce, hot sauce and 2 tablespoons pasta water. Add hot pasta and toss well, adding more pasta water if the mixture looks dry or unevenly yellow. You want the yolk to evenly coat the pasta but you don't want it to be soupy. Add bread crumb mixture and parsley and toss well. Season with plenty of black pepper, and salt to taste. Drizzle pasta with more oil just before serving and serve with lemon wedges.

PASTA WITH BREAD CRUMBS AND ANCHOVIES, SICILIAN STYLE



Pasta With Bread Crumbs and Anchovies, Sicilian Style image

Here's a delightfully simple yet deeply flavorful Sicilian-style pasta sauce from Paula Wolfert, the prolific Mediterranean cookbook author. As you wait for your pasta to cook, sauté a garlic clove in a good bit of olive oil, then discard the clove. Toss in two cans of anchovy fillets and mash them with the back of your spoon until they dissolve into a fragrant sauce. Drain the pasta, then combine it with the anchovy sauce and serve. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for color and toasted bread crumbs for crunch. If you're serving this as a main course, double the recipe, for four generous servings.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, pastas, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/3 cup Sicilian olive oil or substitute a good fruity, green olive oil
1 garlic clove, peeled and halved
2 pinches of red-pepper flakes
2 2-ounce cans flat fillets of anchovy, drained, rinsed, dried and cut small
1/2 pound spaghettini, preferably imported, made of 100 percent durum wheat
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 1/4 cups coarse fresh bread crumbs, toasted (see notes)

Steps:

  • Place olive oil and garlic in a heavy skillet and gently cook the garlic over medium heat until golden. Discard garlic. Add the red-pepper flakes and anchovies and mash to a puree with the back of a wooden spoon over very low heat, about one minute. Remove from heat. Do not allow oil to get very hot. Can be prepared in advance to this point.
  • Cook the spaghettini in boiling, salted water until cooked al dente. While the pasta is cooking, transfer three tablespoons of the pasta cooking water to the anchovy-oil mixture in order to stretch the sauce; reheat carefully. Drain pasta, then transfer it to the skillet and toss with the hot sauce. Divide evenly on four heated dishes, sprinkle with parsley and serve at once. Pass the bread crumbs.

3/4 pound thin spaghetti

Add the garlic and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, tossing regularly until the garlic is just turning golden brown (manage the heat well so that the garlic does not overcook). Add the red pepper flakes and toss for 30 seconds or so. If the pasta is not ready, move the oil off the heat for now.
  • Carefully ladle the reserved pasta cooking water in the pan. Bring to a simmer until the liquid reduces by about 1/3.
  • Add the cooked pasta and toss around for a couple of minutes. Turn the heat off and add the parmesan and parsley. Toss to combine.
  • Allow the pasta a couple more minutes to rest and absorb the sauce. Serve with more Parmesan and red pepper flakes to the side.

SPAGHETTI WITH OLIVE OIL, GARLIC AND ANCHOVIES



Spaghetti with Olive Oil, Garlic and Anchovies image

Categories     Fish     Garlic     Pasta     Quick & Easy     Bon Appétit

Yield 2 servings; can be doubled or tripled

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup olive oil
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 1 3/4- or 2-ounce can anchovy fillets, drained, chopped
8 ounces spaghetti
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Freshly ground pepper
Chopped fresh Italian parsley
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy small skillet over low heat. Add garlic and cook 2 minutes. Add anchovies and cook until garlic just begins to color, 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook spaghetti in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain well. Return spaghetti to pot. Add oil mixture and lemon juice and toss to coat. Season with pepper. Divide between plates. Sprinkle generously with parsley. Serve, passing Parmesan separately if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The fresher and better the ingredients you use, the tastier your dish will be. This is especially true for the olive oil, garlic, and anchovies.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the spaghetti, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the spaghetti from cooking evenly.
  • 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.
  • Don't rinse the spaghetti: Rinsing the spaghetti after cooking will remove the starch, which will make it less likely to absorb the sauce.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Look for a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Don't burn the garlic: Be careful not to burn the garlic when you are cooking it. If the garlic burns, it will make the dish bitter.
  • Use anchovies packed in olive oil: Anchovies packed in olive oil are less salty and have a milder flavor than anchovies packed in salt.
  • Add the anchovies to the pan last: Add the anchovies to the pan last so that they don't overcook and become tough.
  • Serve immediately: Spaghetti with olive oil, garlic, and anchovies is best served immediately after it is made.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti with olive oil, garlic, and anchovies is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With just a few ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying pasta dish that the whole family will enjoy.
