Spaghetti With Burrata and Garlic-Chile Oil image

Burrata - a cousin of mozzarella with a creamy core - is a splurge, but it does all the heavy lifting in this simple dish, adding a rich finish that renders a basic bowl of whole-wheat noodles sophisticated. A spicy-sweet seasoned oil made by sautéing fennel, garlic and red-pepper flakes in good-quality olive oil over low heat is drizzled over the top, complementing the velvety texture of the cheese and the nuttiness of the noodles.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large head fennel (about 8 ounces), trimmed, cored and thinly sliced
10 garlic cloves, thinly sliced lengthwise
3/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 pound whole-wheat spaghetti
8 ounces burrata cheese
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt, such as Maldon
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Crack the fennel seeds with the flat side of a large knife or the backside of a heavy skillet. Heat the oil, sliced fennel, garlic, fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes in a large skillet over low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic and fennel are softened and the oil is deeply flavored, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and return pasta to pot. Reserve a few tablespoons of the seasoned oil and fennel mixture, then add the rest to the pot with the pasta and toss to coat.
  • Divide the pasta and burrata among four shallow bowls. Spoon the remaining seasoned oil and fennel mixture over the top and season with flaky salt and black pepper to taste.

I'm not a huge fan of burrata, but I still enjoyed this dish. The garlic chile oil was delicious, and the spaghetti was cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again, but I would probably use a different cheese next time.

This spaghetti dish was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought garlic chile oil, which worked well. The burrata was the star of the show, and it paired perfectly with the spaghetti and sauce. I would definitely recommend this recipe

I thought this spaghetti dish was just okay. The burrata was good, but the garlic chile oil was a bit overpowering. I think I would have liked it better with a more subtle sauce.

This spaghetti dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said the garlic chile oil was the perfect amount of heat. I would definitely make this dish again, but I would use less chile oil next time.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but this dish was still really good. The garlic chile oil added just the right amount of heat, and the burrata helped to balance it out. I would definitely make this again, maybe with a little less chile oil next tim
