Pasta Bordelaise

1 lb. fettuccini pasta

1/2 cup olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper

Handful of parsley, chopped

1 cup Romano cheese

Boil the pasta in salted water until just done (about 10 minutes).  While the pasta is boiling, heat the oil in a skillet over low heat.  Add the garlic, salt and pepper and sauté until it is almost browned (about 3 minutes).  Drain the pasta and pour the cooked pasta into a large bowl.  Throw the parsley and Romano cheese in with the pasta.  Pour the oil and garlic sauce over the hot pasta and toss to combine.  Red pepper can be sprinkled over servings for those who like it spicy.

Our comments:  This is our best imitation of the dish served at Mosca’s outside New Orleans.  It’s good.  Wade is our pasta connoisseur and eats this by the pound.  It’s easy to fix for a group.
