1Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the box. Normally fettuccine takes up to 8 minutes to reach the al-dente stage.
2Meanwhile, chop the garlic (as finely as you can!) and squeeze out the lemon juice.
3When the pasta is done, put it in cold water and set aside.
4In a pan, heat olive oil on a medium heat and add in the garlic. Cook the garlic till slightly golden (about a minute). Then add in the chili flakes. Cook further for about 20 seconds.
5Follow it by immediately adding the drained pasta to the pan.
