Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the pasta, and cook until al dente. Drain well.

To make garlic oil, simply crush 1 or 2 cloves of garlic and place in a jar of vegetable oil. Store in a cool, dark place for a week or longer. For instant garlic oil, saute 2 crushed cloves of garlic in the oil until garlic is brown. Remove and discard. Use oil immediately.
