[Food & Recipe] Angelhair Aglio Olio


STEP 1
[1]  1 packet angelhair pasta
[2]  1 chicken cube
[3]  4 tbsp cooking oil
[4]  1 tsp coarse salt

- In a pot, add water with chicken cube, cooking oil and salt.
- Bring to a boil.
- Add angelhair and leave to boil until half cooked.
- Take 2 cups of the water, set aside.
- Strain angelhair, set aside.

STEP 2
[5]  Chicken strips - cut into medium-sized bits
[6]  Prawn - leave the tail intact, cut the back and devein
[7]  Squid - cut into rings

- Properly strain and dab (with kitchen towel) the chicken, prawn and squid.
- Heat oil in a work until really hot.
- Fry the chicken, prawn and squid on high heat until the have that brown hues. Fry in small batches.
- Set aside

STEP 3
[8]   6 garlics - I prefer to slice mine, or
                              you can mince the garlic, or
                              'lempang je dengan cleaver sampai penyek'
[9]   Parsley flakes
[10] Chili flakes
[11] 2 cups of pasta water (from Step 1)

- Heat oil in a wok.
- Fry the garlic until they brown on the edges.
- Sprinkle generous amount of parsley and chilli flakes and fry for about 30 seconds.
- Add a cup of pasta water.
- Add angelhair and stir and mix evenly. Use a thong, that would be easier to deal with it :-)
- Add chicken, prawn and squid.
- Add more pasta water if needed.
- Sprinkle some salt to taste (not too much as the angelhair was boiled with salt earlier on).
- Just after turning off the flame, sprinkle some more parsley and chili flakes, you'll get a more 'fresher' look.

Serve & Enjoy!

p/s  I didn't add vege coz the kekanaks don't really eat vege. Instead, I halved cherry tomatoes and served those in their individual bowls.
