Carla Makes Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

Check out my Sweet and Spicy Gift Shop here:

This recipe is from my book, Where Cooking Begins: Uncomplicated Recipes to Make You a Great Cook
a.co/d/3ceL01q
ALONE PASTA! Even when there is nothing to eat,
there is always spaghetti aglio e olio.
I put lots of parsley in this version-
maybe enough to convince myself that I'm getting a serving of greens. Keep this
dish in mind when you’re staring down a
bunch of herbs in the crisper drawer.

How many ounces in your bounces?

[@LuigiNotaro]

80 g for a normal person… 150 g for a pasta lover 😂

[@GregCurtin45]

Why would anyone not cook a full box of pasta? It can serve multiple meals. You can even change up this recipe the next day with spinach, grape tomatoes, your favourite cooked sausage links, and even cooked chicken. Truly a perfect, low cost, fall-winter dish.

[@LBones01]

Excuse me?!?

[@glenndb9646]

I just asked my mom about the pasta serving. I have 2 brothers so when we were all teenagers, she would use 1.5 boxes for 5 people 🍝

[@luluseatowngetdown6251]

“Mo Bounce” the song. That’s how much 😂😂☺️

[@SLAMSwan]

Carla's personal take of a serving size of pasta is hilarious and accurate. I wholeheartedly agree with her.

[@IMakeupStuff]

This is my son's favorite pasta. I made it for him once and now he will request "the good spaghetti" at least once a week and is disappointed when I make pasta with any other sauce. Truly a boy after my own heart.

[@crystallinecrisis3901]

Remember kids, there’s a time and place to add cheese to things. That time and place is whenever you think about it

[@88Eleo]

I am from Modena, and I’m always skeptical about American/italian pasta dishes because they are never as an Italian would cook pasta ..except for Carla’s recipes which are always on point and inspiring. I usually add to aglio e olio also fresh peperoncino 😊

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

this means a lot to me, thank you!!!

[@88Eleo]

@@CarlaLalliMusic123 🤩🤩❤️😍😍😍

[@ramencurry6672]

If you’re in the mood, you can add canned tuna fish to it

[@MrDrPsych]

the way cooking along to this video after getting home from work just saved me from the worst monday of all mondays! thank you for all of your hardwork and amazing recipes and videos, carla!

[@MoYvStarkey]

I've found if I can't sleep, I'll get some leftover spaghetti and mix garlic with it in a frying pan. A little salt, a lot of butter, some olive oil. Yum. I eat it and then sleep like a baby. Making sure I brush my teeth after eating it. Cause you know...morning breath.

[@emilycawse2606]

What’s “leftover” pasta??? 😂

[@caseyjones5145]

Hey now. Breakfast is natures toothbrush.

[@lilacfunk]

@@caseyjones5145 that’s what I keep telling my husband!

[@friesandrupees]

I love using Filipino garlic for this! You basically pickle garlic cloves in rice vinegar for a good two weeks. It gives the garlic a nice acidic bite to it, and bonus: the garlic turns blue if you pickle it long enough and looks beautiful!!

[@kennethszaroleta2997]

I like to add a handful of oil cured black olives at the beginning when I add the garlic to the olive oil. Make sure to pit them first.

[@libbypetersen3523]

OOH we have some of those in the fridge. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@gingerthingx]

I loooove this kind of pasta and LOVE those alone nights where im in front of the tv and stuffing my face w pasta. As always carla you are the vibe

[@cocoblue88]

I made this for dinner and it was out of this world perfection, I did a sourdough bread crumb topping with a touch of garlic and parm and *chefs kiss* DIVIVE! thank you for sharing :)

[@GregCurtin45]

So happy you added anchovies. For those who have never tried them or are afraid... when cooked, they have a peppery flavour to them, nothing fishy. ps: if you make your own Caesar dressing and you are not adding anchovies (or paste) you are not making Caesar dressing.

[@nutritionhungry]

I’m with you Carla! Healthy eating is more than just the ingredients, it’s the joy and pleasure of food too! This recipe looks great I can’t wait to try it.

[@cookwithdrbrooke]

Yum. I make this a lot (ever since watching the movie ‘Chef’) pretty much exactly the same but I also add some lemon juice when I add the parsley. It is definitely my go-to “alone pasta” when hubby is working late. So easy and so tasty and ALL FOR ME!!!

[@vsb101]

Seeing Carla always puts me in a better mood ☺️

[@Skibbityboo0580]

She is just so impossibly chill, and funny!

[@MoYvStarkey]

I love your videos. Your passion for food is delightful.

[@nick_as_tolliver]

I only just recently discovered your channel but you bring such a positive energy to each one, I just wanted to say thank you.

[@allisonsullivan783]

My 5 year old requested this dish after watching the video with me. She even helped cook. Wowwww this is so flavorful! YUM!

[@cindyhauert2339]

Just discovered your site and have already been inspired and learned so much!

[@michaelfoxbrass]

Love your ‘tude on “alone pasta”! It’s a great pleasure to simply enjoy food for its own sake and this dish always makes me happy!

[@4734paramorefan]

Growing up I would make a version of this often and my fam would call it garlic pasta. I would use dried chives and mince the garlic. When I was feeling really naughty I'd do half stick of butter instead of olive oil hubba hubba oh and Stella fontinella...that black wheel iykyk

[@jerrycratsenberg989]

Wonderful, as usual! Thank you for sharing your personal twist on what makes food so damned good!

[@melmurphy1709]

So much love for the ending of this vid. I am also what I call a ‘highly extroverted introvert’ and I love alone time. Can’t wait to try this recipe

[@jg-im4px]

Omg this is a dream I'm so excited to see her version

[@kazune414]

I made this last night and it turned out great! Thank you so much Carla for the new recipe it's definitely going to become one of my go-to's for an easy one to two person pasta meal 😊

[@AmandaCef_Art]

I love that everyone’s families had weird iterations if aglio e olio from when they were kids. Ours was “allya ooulya”

[@gildedage6020]

I make this all the time...like tonight. Yours is most like how I make it than any I've seen on here. The amount for just me too!!!

[@bluy6]

Thank you for putting parmesan in your aglio y olio I know it's taboo and untraditional but it just tastes way fuckin better

[@thugmonk9837]

I always put cheese on mine and it's hands down my favourite pasta dish ever. So so good

[@madeline4269]

Omg was I number 200k subscriber? An honor really. Pasta princess may you reign

[@richardjohnson8356]

Such a good cook/chef, simple elegant

[@kikrou]

I haven't been here in a while, so I was really surprised by the really dumb captions. Loving it!!!

[@OneOlive1]

Oh my gosh, this looks like my favorite recipe yet!

[@maurac953]

I'm with you, Carla, about adding cheese to your spaghetti aglio e olio! I've been eating it that way for years. I started when I didn't know you "weren't supposed to." I look forward to trying your version! Thanks for sharing this delicious meal.

[@AdeleHawkins-yh7tj]

this looks doooooope. It would give me a good excuse to open up that can of anchovies, and I have SO much parsley growing in the herb garden, looks like a perfect winter pasta recipe.

[@NeerajElectricalNoida]

Awesome Tasty yummy Yummy.

[@pul0y]

Carla can sure try to sell me my own wok and I would still give her my rapt attention. So much cheer and joy in this and all your other vids.

[@julesdm6905]

Made this, ate it by myself, and it's delicious.

[@colinferguson7400]

another banger from Carla

[@christinamatzen4214]

9:20 - Extroverted Loner 😂 I love it! I always say I am an Introverted Extrovert. I want to go to the party but I do NOT want the party to be about me!😊

[@orffrocks5667]

I just tune in for a good chuckle, so funny

[@gail4101]

Hey Carla! I now live alone and this is always my go-to when nothing else appeals!! Always anchovies!

[@Nesyaishere]

My sister put our kind of ghost pepper in there 🤣 we love spicy food so i think chili flakes wont do much, it's literally fresh evil-looking chili and she added quite a lot of it! And how funny is it that i just know you're not supposed to add cheese to this but when i first tasted this dish my first reaction was 'did someone put cheese in it?' for how savory it gets. Like howwwwwwww. This dish is magic really.

[@davidcoppotelli3957]

Great Video Carla, I love the Pasta, Dish. That's Perfection in a Dish. David, RI

[@daphlavor]

My mother told me that when we moved into our new house, my grandfather would come over to help, she would make his favorite Agli Oil pasta, I never understood why, since she never made it for us? However now I do know why he loved it. I have prepared cacio peppe, and carbonara for my family, now it’s this dish I’ll introduce them to. Caio Carla

[@Purr-spectivesFun]

okay every video im giggling... i cant help shes amazing

[@kittywitty6507]

Yum im making this now 😋

[@nancyismyname]

Very fun video and now I have to subscribe! Love your personality ❤

[@williammay1869]

Had to subscribe after "Personal Portal To Pasta Pleasure Dome" quote ...... 🤣

[@SouBuuS]

Aha! this is the pasta they made in Chef!

[@lexxielightning]

A little disappointed that it’s not called Aglio Alonio

[@patriciamurashige6879]

Yum with cheese and plenty of it😋 garlic, and anchovies too!! I will skip the parsley please!!

[@willcookmakeup]

Awww love that commes de garcons top. Super cute. Great video as always xoxoxo

[@cynthiapaschen]

Delightful. Sad story: I as a newlywed once fixed this with zero salt. Ack!

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

live and learn! bet you never did it again!

[@maunarose]

“Give them olive the things!” Exclaimed Carla 😂

[@brianmclaughlin358]

Totally making this tonight.

[@L110508]

Add shiitake mushroom when the garlic is about to turn brown, that would make this tastes even better.

[@GreenWitch1]

Yum 😋

[@Sheherazadeh91]

Why am I always watching these kind of videos and torturing myself, while hungry, with it at night? I’m drooling now, it looks heavenly delicious 🤤

[@Evolventity]

Loving the down to earth vibes.

[@bigdezol]

I make this but with lemon and lemon zest instead of anchovy. Now I shall add anchovy!

[@LC.1990]

I love your hair. I gave up on my gray and got my hair colored. Wish I hadn't after seeing how good it looks on you!

[@PliableScissors]

Just read that your father-in-law was Carlton the doorman, he created The Bob Newhart show, and co-wrote the TBNS theme song. That's pretty cool!

[@soundfable9909]

Just made this. It was so good and really easy . . . Despite the fact that I dumped a bunch of red pepper in on the side of the shaker meant for a spoon lmao

[@daleconley7809]

I love your pepper grinder! What kind is it? I think I want one.

[@bigbyallsmay8992]

the pasta portions... the copious amount of garlic.... the cheese over the pasta.... the cooking for one...SHE JUST LIKE ME FR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@colleenwilliams6691]

Carla, I love you so much. This is everything, esp post Thanksgiving. I'm gonna add scramps to mine? Why NOT

[@lmpfledderer]

Garla in full force for this one!! 🧄🧄🧄🧄

[@alisonchristinewebb]

Great video!

[@foodisforeating6181]

Sometimes Carla is just so adorable... 🙂

[@roguephoenix]

the parsley won't overpower the garlic, right?

[@razrv3lc]

11:43 omg what is this song it is so familiar. It’s frustrating because I’m positive I’ve gone down the rabbit hole searching for it once in the past too hahahaha

[@bunnygirl2222]

thank you for teaching this 25 year old gal how to cook carla ❤️‍🔥

[@kylorenthehusky2584]

Um just came across your channel. You’re hilarious 😆! Pasta looks deelish. I make garlic fried rice with the same steps 😋 Have a lovely day!

[@LuigiNotaro]

Here in Italy, when you crave a midnight pasta you cook pasta aglio e olio ❤

[@carolyn7298]

Perfect Alone Pasta…💗 Made it ‘chovie!😂

[@Lizzy43645]

“This is a stretch” 😂🤣😂🤣

[@soyalexpop]

When Carla was saying how to make the garlic she sounded like the tiktok “I can be anything you like” lmao

[@GadgetsGearCoffee]

would be helpful to have the recipe link in the description or recipe itself in the description :)

[@iliketowatch1978]

okay CDG Play. Letting us fashionistas have it. Anchovy.....gotta try this now

[@matthadeed9827]

What is that amazing giant pan and where do I get one for myself. I mean my wife!

[@themorticians]

"Alone Pasta" aka "Spinster Pasta." I feel seen. Grazie, Carla.

[@iamsupahflyyy]

What kind of parsley do you use?

[@yoitsdan]

I eat 300g (10/11oz) of pasta in one sitting generally and I'm barely full. I eat only in a 6 hour window though so I think it's ok 🤔

[@EK-xz8ig]

I love being alone!

[@rneustel388]

Aah, someone finally that agrees the serving size of pasta is ridiculous on the box!!

[@fletchoid]

I love how you make all the oily, garlicy, high salt, high carb, good stuff we know we should eat in moderation seem like we are doing a healthy, environmentally conscious thing so were good to eat more of that good stuff. Anchovies a good source of Omegas... yep, we put a teensy salt preserved fish in our food, so we gonna get them Omegas.... I love it. Can't wait to try this recipe.

[@zenm0de]

olive oil and garlic, known for being unhealthy

[@adb1917]

I feel like Claire and Carla are always defending their salt amounts, but I don’t feel like it’s necessary. I’d salt to the end of the earth if they told me to. This looks delicious

[@carolinabaker2728]

ok but the NAILS

[@broadwaybeat]

Carla in another life you should’ve been a lawyer. You convinced me that this pasta is basically as nutritious as a kale salad

[@wwaxwork]

So if parsley tastes like soap to you what other herbs could you use? She usually mentions alternatives but I didn't see any this time.

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

chives or chervil are nice, or you could instead use a tender green like spinach, arugula, or swiss chard. or just leave it out!

[@sarahwatts7152]

Best news: pasta is healthy!

[@LSK400]

Don't see curly parsley being used in a lot of recipes these days, is there a reason for using it here Vs Italian parsley?

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

just happened to be what I had in the fridge so I wanted to use it up! they are basically identical in taste

[@martymalone4]

you're truly an icon ❤

[@jordansalazar846]

What’s more fun than eating… for longer?!

[@dstein111]

Her last name is music?

[@mr.h4880]

I thought it had lemon juice?

[@grimmWednesday]

We called it “green spaghetti”

[@bluedrummajor2876]

I thought for sure at least one, if not all, of your boys would join. "Hey, why didn't let me know there's pasta?"

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

it's always a crap shoot as to whether one of them will be home AND willing to be on camera. i mean, cosmo is always game but the other one not so much

[@sofiaeverton]

I've already tried aglio e olio so many times, to me it's beautiful, so much garlic, love that, so much olive oil, also love it, but it just doesn't happens to me, so sad
