Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb risotto
  • 1 medium extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 lb garlic
  • a pinch Parmesan
  • 4 oz fresh basil
  • 1/4 cup kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp cracked black pepper
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Salt your pasta water until it tastes like the sea and get it boiling.
  2. Start the sauce so it is ready the moment the pasta is: garlic in warm oil, then the rest.
  3. Pull the pasta a minute early and let it finish cooking right in the sauce.
  4. Loosen with pasta water until glossy, then serve at once with plenty of Parmesan.
Keep cooking
