Spicy Olio

Been wanting to cook this Olio for so long already. I've even bought the Olive oil at least 2 months back.....the only thing lacking is the motivation. Since my maid made her disappearing act few months back, I've spent very little time in the kitchen. Marsya will be at the babysitter's house the whole day where she's gonna have her lunch plus dinner there. So, I dont see a point to cook if it's only for myself.....considering that I'm not a big eater at all.

That's the reason why this Olio project of mine has been dormant all these whiles. But then, since having fried noodles every morning has been so pukable already, I guess it's high time to reinstate my Olio project.

So frens, as promised here's the recipe. Please try it out coz it's so yummy & it's my own original recipe - copyright reserved tau !

Tips

Spaghetti olio is a versatile dish which you can add stuffs like fresh tomatoes, olives, egg plant or anything to bulk it up and give variety to its taste. Same goes with the chilli - if you dont want it to be too spicy, you can always omit the chilli padi & replaced with dried chilli or capsicum. Clams, mussels or chicken are also good instead of prawns - whichever is preferable.
