A quick and flavorful noodle dish with a spicy garlic kick, perfect for a satisfying meal.
Boil the noodles in a large pot of salted water until tender but firm.
Stir the noodles occasionally to prevent sticking.
Drain the noodles, reserving a small amount of the cooking water.
Reserve about a quarter cup of the cooking water to adjust the sauce consistency later.
Heat olive oil in a pan and sauté minced garlic until fragrant.
Keep the heat medium-low to avoid burning the garlic.
Add the cooked noodles to the pan and toss to coat with the garlic oil.
Add a splash of the reserved cooking water if the noodles seem dry.
Sprinkle red chili flakes and salt over the noodles, tossing to combine.
Adjust the chili flakes to your preferred spice level.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Chop the parsley finely for an even distribution.
