100 gram thick spaghetti

1 saucepan
Step 2
In a separate pan, on medium heat, add 2-3 tbsp olive oil, garlic, and chili flakes. Cook only about 10 seconds, then add the white wine. Reduce 80% volume; it should take about 2 minutes or so.

3 tbsp olive oil

2 clove garlic, sliced thin

50 gram white wine

1 tbsp red pepper flakes

1 pan
Step 3
Once reduced, add your chicken stock, bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the roux little by little, just enough to gloss, like a light gravy. Set pan aside until noodles are ready.

When noodles are shy of al dente, transfer to your sauce and crank heat to high. Add a ladle of the pasta water
Step 5
Mix the noodles a bit, and let cook without touching for a minute. The sauce will emulsify and adhere to noodle. Add your basil and mix.
