How to cook Spaghetti

Here's a really quick guide on how to cook Spaghetti. Including timings and a couple of extra ingredients you can add to make the perfect spaghetti. Be sure to check out the video demonstration below.

  1. Fill a saucepan with boiling water and bring to a low boiling point on the hob.
  2. Season the water by stirring in a pinch of Salt and a drizzle of Olive Oil.
  3. Now get your Spaghetti and hold it upright in the water. Twist the Spaghetti then release to allow the Spaghetti to spiral into the saucepan.
  4. Push the Spaghetti into the saucepan so it's all submerged in the water. Stir, then leave to simmer for 10 minutes, or until it's cooked to your liking.
  5. Taste with a folk then drain the Spaghetti using a colander. Serve and enjoy.

Goes great with my Spaghetti Bolognese Recipe.
