Make Name: Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

Recipe Name: Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

Ingredients:
- 1/2 pound spaghetti
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Step by Step Guide:
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is golden brown and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
3. Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the garlic and oil. Toss well to coat the spaghetti with the garlic-infused oil. If the pasta seems dry, add some of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up.
4. Season the spaghetti with salt and pepper to taste. Toss again to combine.
5. Serve the spaghetti aglio e olio hot, garnished with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
