Spaghetti all’assassina (Italian: [spaˈɡetti allassasˈsiːna]; lit. ‘assassin’s manner spaghetti’), also known as spaghetti bruciati (Italian: [spaˈɡetti bruˈtʃaːti]; lit. ‘burnt spaghetti’)] is a pasta dish. Instead of being boiled in salted water and finished in sauce, the spaghetti is cooked directly in the pan (traditionally cast iron). A broth typically made of tomato sauce diluted with water is gradually added to the pan as the pasta absorbs it, similar to a risotto. As the spaghetti absorbs the sauce, it cooks directly on the pan surface, developing significant browning and a distinctive, crispy texture unique among pasta dishes.
Looks very good, OP!
solid 3.6 for a first try - not great, not terrible.
You really ought to burn the pasta for all’assassina, literally murder the pasta.

That looks… carcinogenic.
Most good things in life ARE a little carcinogenic.
I add crushed chilli and call it The Angry Italian… try it. But yeah, those need to cook longer. I can flip mine like a pancake.
Looks like it would have benefited from some more time in the pan. It should be more caramelised and crispy.
Looking good, made me want to cook a sphahgetti for dinner!
Hell yeah!
My kind of spaghetti
