• splash of olive oil
• 1 lemon, juice and zest

• chilli flakes optional

Method:
1. Add the pasta to a large pan of boiling salted water and cook according to pack instructions (usually 10 minutes).

To serve: Toss well with drained pasta, season with salt and pepper, enjoy. Chilli flakes are a welcome addition to this dish.
