Method
- Heat extra virgin olive oil in a pan with fresh chili pepper, parsley stems, and optional anchovies to infuse the oil.
- Meanwhile, cook spaghetti using the risotto method: add the pasta to a pan and gradually add hot water or broth, stirring continuously to release starch and create a creamy sauce.
- When the pasta is al dente, combine it with the aromatic oil in the pan and toss well, adding a little pasta water as needed for a creamy emulsion.
- Just before serving, crumble the frisella bread over the pasta and mix briefly. Serve immediately, drizzling with extra olive oil if desired.
