    Title: Spaghetti Alla Bottarga
    Categories: Pasta
    Yield: 4 Servings

    1 lb Dry spaghetti
    1/2 c Extra-virgin olive oil
    1 cl Garlic; peeled and
    -finely sliced
    1 ts Red pepper flakes
    4 oz Bottarga; grated, or more to
    -taste
    Salt to taste

    In a large, heavy-bottom pot, bring salted water to a boil and cook
    the spaghetti according to the package instructions until just al
    dente.

    Meanwhile, in a large, high-sided skillet or saute pan, warm the oil
    over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and pepper flakes and let them
    steep in the oil until they become fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove
    from the heat, let sit for 2 minutes, then add half the grated
    bottarga and gently swirl the skillet.

    Drain the cooked pasta in a colander and transfer it to the skillet
    with the warm oil. Toss well to combine, then top the pasta with the
    remaining bottarga. Taste and season if necessary with salt (bearing
    in mind that bottarga is quite salty), then serve immediately in
    bowls.
