意大利面的做法(英语）

Spaghetti is an easy and inexpensive meal to make. You can enjoy it with a basic tomato sauce or add chicken or shrimp for a more complex dish. Cooking dried spaghetti is particularly quick.

Instructions
1.Fill a large pot, preferably a dutch oven, with water. Depending on the size of the pot, fill it from 1/2 to 3/4 full with water.
2.Cover the pot with a lid and place over high heat.
3.Leave the lid on the pot until the water comes to a rolling boil. The lid will allow the water to heat up more quickly.
4.Remove the lid and add salt to the water when it reaches a boil.
5.Remove the spaghetti from its packaging and break it in half.
6.Add the spaghetti to the boiling water.
7.Allow the spaghetti to cook for approximately 10 minutes, occasionally stirring it to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Occasionally check the spaghetti to see if it's done. When the pasta reaches al dente, it will be firm in the middle but chewy.
8.Empty the contents of the pot into the colander to drain the liquid.
9.Add a small amount of olive oil to the pasta and toss.
10.Serve with your favorite sauce.
