Pasta & summer: it’s an excellent combination because pasta is an easy dish convenient for all these warm summer nights when sitting outside w/ a glass of wine longing for some easy, but substantial food – which wouldn’t keep you in the kitchen for too long.
The spaghetti are coated w/ a blend of fresh crispy lemon flavour, a hot chili impact & a hearty garlic background – the lemon thyme will give it a solid Mediterranean finish.
Start at once… you’ll only need:
- spaghetti
- olive oil
- an organic lemon
- garlic
- dried chili peppers…
- …
- …& maybe – optional – some cream & fresh lemon thyme.
1st step: Grate the lemon zest & squeeze the lemon juice.
2nd step: Press the garlic.
While cooking the spaghetti grab a pan & start frying the lemon zest, the pressed garlic & the chili peppers in olive oil – softly! Totally softly! Nothing shall get black & burnt!
Add some cooking water of the spaghetti for creaminess… & add some lemon juice for flavour!
As soon as the spaghetti are well cooked & drained just put them in the pan & toss to combine.
Maybe add some cream for even more creaminess…
Don’t forget to discard the chili peppers!
When serving add some minced fresh lemon thyme!
It’s perfect! Enjoy!
