Frittelle de Spaghetti


Frittelle de Spaghetti is just a fancy Italian way to say Spaghetti Fritters. These bad boys and delicious and totally more-ish. Soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside and totally addictive

Ingredients
2 cloves garlic
a handful of finely chopped parsley
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
fresh grated parmesan cheese
Feta cheese (Jamie's recipe does not say use feta but I only had a small amount of parmesan and a block of feta so in it went)
1-2 dried chillies (to your tase, I didn’t have fresh chilli so I just chilli flakes and LOTS of it)
salt
200g dried spaghetti
olive oil

Put all your ingredients, apart from the spaghetti and olive oil, into a bowl and mix together.
Add your spaghetti to a pan of well salted, boiling water and cook according to the packet instructions.
Drain the pasta in a colander and rise under cold water to cool it down.
Once the pasta is cool, snip it with sissors into the pieces roughly 8cm inches long and add them to the bowl.
Mix everything together well.

Pour a little oil into a pan and place on the heat.
Then, using a fork, add piles (as big or as small as you like) of the spaghetti mixture onto the pan and fry until golden and crisp on both sides.
