Well would you check out this luxury pie? Well it's not a pie, it's pasta. Look at how glossy
and cheesy and amazing it is. This is my spicy garlic butter linguine. This is one of those
pasta dishes that I call like emergency or pantry pasta. Really simple ingredients but the result
can I say is so good. And of course because I'm me, half Thai, half Australian, we're gonna add
a little bit of an Asian accent to our pasta dish because fusion pasta is one of my great loves as
many of you would know. Let's get on to the garlic oil first of all that I'm going to make. So I'm
going to start off with a little bit of extra virgin olive oil and then I've got some finely
sliced cloves of garlic here. Now I just want to gently heat this oil up so the garlic just starts
to sizzle in there and releases all of its flavor into the oil. Now the trick to making garlic oil
and little beautiful crispy garlic chips is to take it off before it looks entirely ready because
the oil will continue to cook the garlic once it's off the heat. So once you can start to see that
beautiful golden color at the edges of those cloves, that's when you want to take it out.
You can see that oil is still bubbling away in there and as it sits and cools down that garlic
will turn a really beautiful even golden color. Now so far we haven't done anything controversial
and we're going to stick with the Italians on the way we cook our pasta as well. No need to
argue with perfection. Salted boiling water, in goes the pasta and I want to cook that. This one
says about seven minutes on the packet so I'm going to keep an eye out here and I really want
a nice al dente bite here because I want to finish the cooking in the pan. So let's get on to the not
so traditional sauce. A little bit of butter first of all, well a little bit of butter, a fair bit of
butter. Some more garlic, this time finely chopped. A little sprinkling of chili flakes or I guess in
my case a big sprinkle of chili flakes. Now just let the garlic and the chili and the butter make
good friends in there as it sizzles away. Don't turn the heat too high because I don't want that
garlic to burn or color at all. Just as that butter is melted I'm going to add in my soy sauce.
This would be the time for our Italian friends to turn away.
And some oyster sauce. I just want to give this a minute and then I'm going to turn the heat off
and wait for my pasta. Okay pasta still needs a few minutes, I'm going to chop up some spring
onion in the meantime. The only way to check or the best way to check in my opinion is taste test.
Still quite a firm bite through the center, just what I want. Now before I touch that pasta I'm
going to save some of this pasta cooking water because if I need to thin out my sauce at the end
that is the perfect thing to do it with. Now make sure my sauce is back on the heat and in goes the
pasta. Now this is where the true magic happens. We want to keep stirring and tossing this linguine
in the sauce until it's beautifully rich and creamy. You'll see it looks like there's quite
a lot of liquid here to start with and all of that will magically turn into something really
luscious soon. Trust me. So it's already started look at that the butter and the liquid and the
pasta and the starch from the pasta it's all turning into that beautiful magical sauce and
look how thick and glossy that is amazing. Alright cheese next. A really good grating of parmesan is
what's needed here. Okay toss that. This is really going to be truly joyful I can tell.
Okay now get that out onto a plate. Pasta waits for no man. You really want to be eating it
straight away. Don't forget some of that garlic oil and some of those beautiful little crispy
garlic chips. A little sprinkling of spring onion and more cheese of course and there you go.
Fusion pasta never fails to make me smile. I love it so much. Alright let's see how we go here.
Wow these are all really simple pantry ingredients and yet just how beautifully
salty and cheesy and rich and buttery that is. This really is luxury pie, luxury pasta, whatever.
