SERVINGS

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cups tomato puree
- 3 cups water
- 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 teaspoons red chili flakes, or to taste
- 6 ounces dry spaghetti
- salt to taste
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary ingredients beforehand.
2
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a cooking vessel over an intermediate temperature setting, around medium heat. Introduce minced garlic into the pot and allow it to cook until it begins to transform a golden hue and emits a captivating aroma, approximately 1 minute. Stir in tomato paste, water, and salt to create a harmonious blend. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer on an elevated heat setting, medium-high. Once the liquid comes to a boil, decrease the heat to a lower setting and maintain warmth.
3
Pour an adequate amount of olive oil into a large, non-stick cooking pan over medium-high heat, sprinkle with chili flakes, and allow the mixture to warm up until the chili flakes start to sizzle, for 1 minute. Introduce raw spaghetti into the pan and mix until it is evenly coated with a spicy oil.
4
Carefully pour in approximately 3 cups of tomato broth, utilizing tongs to gently move the pasta from side to side in order to distribute the liquid evenly. Continue cooking, occasionally using tongs to rotate the pasta and keep it facing the same direction, until most of the broth has evaporated or been absorbed by the pasta.
5
Utilize tongs to turn the spaghetti over and evenly distribute it within the pan. Continue cooking until the pasta begins to develop a rich, caramelized crust and lightly chars.
6
Add approximately 2 more cups of tomato broth, repeating the process. Continue cooking until the spaghetti achieves your desired level of browning and is cooked to your preferred doneness. Additional broth can be added towards the end of cooking for a more saucy version, or it can be served relatively dry.
7
Serve the spaghetti with a drizzle of olive oil and additional chili flakes if desired.
