Green Aglio e Olio

Green Aglio e Olio

A classic Italian dish with a little twist. Traditionally made with only 4 ingredients- pasta, olive oil, garlic and chilli flakes, I decided to add veggies for extra health benefits. Roasted tomatoes and fried spinach blend beautifully with garlic olive oil and chilli flakes and the whole dish takes only 20 minutes to put together.
