Ingredients

• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 pound angel hair pasta
• 2 cups olive oil for frying
• 2 bulbs garlic, peeled and diced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes; drain.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat until a piece of garlic dropped into oil gently sizzles. Add remaining garlic; cook and stir until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove fried garlic to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon and set aside; reserve garlic-infused olive oil.

Step 3

Place angel hair onto individual serving dishes and sprinkle with fried garlic. Drizzle with some of the garlic-infused olive oil and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Reserve any remaining garlic-infused olive oil for another use.
