These days, I do not have much time to cook and I normally cook something quick and not very complicated. This is the case of the spaghetti with garlic, oil and chilli. From Naples, this recipe is a classic pasta dish and its preparation is quite simple, not to say that it is probably the one with the easiest directions. In these spaghetis, the combination of garlic and oil is perfect, and even better with spicy chili. But, not too much, as I prefer not too spicy.

Sugerencias, trucos y consejos
- You can use cayenne pepper instead of red chilli pepper, or, even, a pinch of chili powder.
- Adjust the spicy level according to your liking. Hotness depends not only on the amount of chillies, but also on the cooking time in the oil with the garlic.
- Use the pasta cheese you prefer. As a suggestion, you can use Parmesan, Grana Padano, or pecorino.
