This dish can also be referred to as Spaghetti Aglio e Olio con Pancetta as spaghetti is also a type of pasta. This is basically traditional Italian pasta whose origin can be traced to Naples. The dish consists of six primary ingredients: olive oil, sliced, minced or pressed garlic, spaghetti as the most prepared type of pasta, red pepper flakes, finely chopped flat parsley leaf and linguine. The Pancetta is optional, but I like its flavor. Same with the butter; it can be omitted and the olive oil increase proportionally to half a cup. The graded cheese is also optional, so the entire dish can be made to be a vegan dish.
