Step 1
Boil pasta: Bring 10 cups water to a boil in a large pot. Add salt and spaghetti. Cook al dente following the timings on the package (mine takes 10 mins). Reserve ¼ cup pasta cooked stock/ water. Drain the pasta to a colander.
Step 2
Make the sauce: Heat oil in a pan and saute garlic until it begins to shrink and turn aromatic. Stir in the chili flakes and cook for 30 to 50 seconds. Pour the reserved pasta water and add salt as needed. (note - pasta stock has some salt). Cook until the sauce reduces a bit and thickens.
Step 3
Make scrambled egg pasta : Pour the eggs, scramble and cook until they are fully cooked, yet soft. Taste test and adjust salt to your preference. Toss the pasta with the eggs and add herbs. Serve hot or warm.
