Capellini Aglio Olio e' Peperoncino

This pasta is very simple to make; it only takes 5 ingredients and 5 minutes. Pure flavors and simplicity are the essences of this dish.
The Ingredients
(serves 3)
.5 pound of capellini
2 cloves of garlic, sliced paper thin
.5 teaspoon of peperoncino
5-7 basil leaves thinly sliced
2 tablespoons of olive oil
salt
The
Method
Bring a large pot of water to the boil and add salt. Throw in the pasta and be sure to stir to prevent sticking.
Start with a cold pan, add garlic, chili flakes and olive oil then turn the heat to medium heat.
The oil will start to heat and the garlic will start to sizzle and lightly brown. Drain and add the pasta and sprinkle in the basil. Toss to coat and serve.
