Spaghetti with garlic, oil and chilli pepper with walnuts, lemon and bottarga. Today a Crafty first course, indeed very clever: To do this, you need just two ingredients, the walnuts and the ROE. Others have probably already at home: garlic, oil, Chili, parsley and lemon. Obviously the sauce to flavor these simple spaghetti is prepared in 2 minutes flat, but the flavor is really rich and explosive.

I love it so much Garlic and oil-based dressing to have reinterpreted it several times. Starting with the classics SPAGHETTI WITH GARLIC, OIL AND CHILLI PEPPER (even in RECIPE VIDEO) all the way to psychedelics SPAGHETTI WITH GARLIC, OIL AND BEETROOT (very good) and creatives RAVIOLI STUFFED WITH GARLIC AND CHILLI OIL.
