Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/3 cup garlic -- very thinly sliced
1/2 cup olive oil -- plus 2 tbsp.
1/4 cup hot water
salt -- to taste
1/4 cup fresh parsley -- finely chopped
Place the garlic and olive oil in a small, heavy saucepan over low heat. Bring the oil to a slow, steady bubble, then
cook for 15 minutes. Using a small whisk, vigorously beat in the water until a smooth sauce is formed. Season with salt. Keep warm.
When the pasta is ready to serve, drain it in a colander, and moisten it with a little bit of the sauce. Place pasta
back in the cooking pot on low heat, and toss well with the rest of the sauce and the parsley. Taste and, if necessary, season with coarse salt. Serve immediately.
