10 min Fish Sauce Pasta with Sarah

10 minutes and 6 ingredients is all you need to whip up this Fish Sauce Pasta!

In true fusion action, @sarahhuangbenjamin swapped Colatura di alici (Italian fish sauce) with the Asian fish sauce we are all familiar with. The end result was a delicious, umami pasta with an Asian twist!

Ingredients:
3 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried chilli flakes
1-2 tablespoons high-quality fish sauce, or to taste
220g dried spaghetti
Fresh basil or Italian parsley, to garnish


Steps:
1. Boil the spaghetti in lightly salted water until not quite al dente. It should have a noticeable bite in the centre.
2. In the meantime, heat the olive oil in a deep saut pan on a medium heat. Add the sliced garlic, and cook for a minute to let the flavours infuse.
3. Add the dried chilli flakes to the pan and immediately take off the heat. Let the pan cool down a little.
4. Add 1 tablespoon of fish sauce to the pan, stirring to incorporate.
5. When the pasta is ready, transfer it to the saut pan, along with 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
6. Put the pan back on a high heat, and stir to emulsify while coking the pasta. If the pasta needs to cook some more, add more pasta water.
7. Taste the pasta, adding more fish sauce if necessary. When the pasta is perfectly cooked and the sauce is glossy and clinging to the spaghetti, stir in some fresh basil or parsley. Serve!
