Anyone have any simple, delicious pasta recipes?

This isn't as entailed as the other recipes, which sound great btw. This one is simple and quick. But very good.





Pasta Diavolo:





Boil some Thin Spaghetti. While that's boiling, melt some butter (about 1/2 cube per pound) with a little olive oil in a frying pan on medium heat. Saute about 2 finely chopped cloves of Garlic until golden but not burned, add 1 tablespoon of Red Chile Pepper seeds. Saute very briefly. Just long enough to release the flavor of the Pepper.





Drain the pasta and toss immediately with the Butter Garlic and Pepper. Add some grated Parmesan and toss lightly.





Serve with a light salad and a nice loaf of crusty Italian Bread.





The whole meal shouldn't take longer than the Pasta boiling.
