This recipe is a variant of the NYTimes' "Midnight Pasta", crossed with Cong you mian (葱油面).

Ingredients

• Spaghetti
• Salt
• Olive Oil
• Garlic
• Anchovies
• Red Pepper Flakes
• Green Onion
• Spaghetti
• Freshly Ground Black Pepper
• Parmesan Cheese (optional)

Instructions

1. Salt the pot and bring spaghetti to a boil.
2. Pour olive oil into a pan over medium heat. When shimmering, add in diced garlic. Cook for a few minutes, and then add in the anchovies.
3. To the sauce mixture, add in the green onion and pepper flakes. Taste a tiny bit (careful, the oil is hot) and adjust as needed.
