Summary

Name: Garlicky Pasta with Fresh Green Herbs

Category: Main Dish

Ingredients and Directions

1 pound spaghetti

8 each garlic, cloves, chopped

1/4 cup oil, olive

1/2 cup parsley, fresh, chopped

1/4 cup basil, fresh, chopped

1/4 cup chives, fresh, chopped

4 tablespoon sage, fresh, chopped

1 salt, to taste

1 pepper, to taste

Cook spaghetti until al dente. Meanwhile, heat the garlic in the olive oil until it smells fragrant, just a few moments. Toss in the herbs & remove from the heat. Drain the pasta & toss in the pan with the garlicky herbs. Season & serve & do not add cheese as it only interferes with the herby flavours. Be sure to add enough salt & pepper, however. VARIATION: Omit the basil altogether. Replace the sage with any of the following fresh herbs: marjoram; oregano; thyme; rosemary or tarragon. Conversely, reduce the amount of sage & add a little of all these herbs.
