Spaghetti Vongole
Spaghetti Vongole, also known as spaghetti alle vongole, is an Italian pasta dish traditionally made with spaghetti, clams, garlic, white wine, parsley and olive oil.
Ingredients
- 1 pound spaghetti
- 2 pounds fresh clams scrubbed and cleaned
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the spaghetti and set it aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
