Try this ...





GARLIC %26amp; OIL PASTA (AGLIO E OLIO)





Per Person





INGREDIENTS





1 clove of garlic


1 tablespoon of olive oil


125ml of water


录 of a teaspoon of salt


100g of spaghetti


Ground pepper to taste





METHOD





Peel the garlic and chop it into tiny pieces.





Put the oil into a frying pan on a moderate heat. Add the garlic. Fry the garlic for about 5 minutes until it is brown, stirring to stop it sticking.





Put the water and salt into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Put the pasta into the water. Stir it to stop it sticking to the bottom of the pan. Bring back to the boil and continue to cook, stirring to stop it sticking.





Begin testing the pasta about 2 minutes before the packet instructions say it should be done. The best way to judge if pasta is cooked is to bite it. This is tricky, because if you fish out a bit and stick in your mouth you may burn your mouth on the boiling water. Wait a bit and blow on it, then bite it. If it is hard it needs longer. If it is chewy (or 鈥榓l dente鈥? Italian for 鈥榯o the teeth鈥? it is ready. If it is soft it is overcooked.





Drain the pasta in a sieve or colander. Season with the pepper.





Always 鈥榯ake the pasta to the sauce鈥? Put the pasta in the pan with the sauce and stir until thoroughly coated.





ADDITIONS %26amp; ALTERNATIVES





Use any other long thin plain pasta, like linguine (thin and flat), tagliolini (very thin and flat) or spaghettini (very thin and round), instead of spaghetti.





For Garlic %26amp; Parsley Pasta, add 25g per person of fresh parsley. Wash, shake dry and finely chop the parsley. Add the parsley just before serving.





For Garlic %26amp; Anchovy Pasta, add 13g (录 of a 50g tin) per person of anchovy fillets in olive oil. If you are using the whole tin, use the oil from this to fry the garlic. Add the anchovies to the garlic after the 5 minutes and mash up until smooth.





For Garlic, Anchovy %26amp; Olive Pasta, add 2 or 3 pitted black olives and 2 or 3 pitted green olives per person to the Garlic %26amp; Anchovy Pasta just before serving.





TIPS





If you use enough water, add the pasta when the water is boiling, stir the pasta and don鈥檛 wander off (鈥楪li spaghetti amano la compagnia鈥?or 鈥榮paghetti loves company鈥? and don鈥檛 overcook it, adding olive oil to the water to stop it sticking is totally unnecessary.





PS. I have seen this dish on a restaurant menu for 拢8.50!
Try Borsch! Equal volumes of beetroot and potato, boil until soft. Add two onions that have been chopped and fried. Liquify. Add a tube of tomato puree, or a can of chopped tomatoes. Add little salt, black pepper and half a dozen green cardomon pods from which you take the little seeds and throw in the stew. Boil. Cool and serve with a spoon of yoghurt in the centre of each bowl. So good at this time of the year!


OLGA
My two standbys are cold sesame noodles (basically just cooked linguini with a simple dressing) or vegetarian chili (easy to make because you just throw all ingredients in one pot and let it simmer for awhile).





You could also try veggie fried rice or seasoned rice with black beans.
How about a Spanish Omelette;





They are very filling and yummy





You could make pizza, pasta, or garlic bread :P
how about something italian? bruschetta... little toasts with cheese,tomatoes... look up for your favorites... you can put just about anything on it.
How old is your daughter?





If we knew her age it would help.





There is always tacos, spaghetti etc...





And I would just like to know why your your daughter is not looking for her own recipes.
Try a greek '; Stifado '; It's a beef stew basically but very easy to make, Google the recipe.
