Pasta with Garlic and Shrimp Paste

This consists of just five main ingredients: pasta, garlic, butter, olive oil, and Thai shrimp paste. Do not let the Asian twist throw you off - the balance of flavors from the fermented shrimp and the garlic is what makes this dish work. Â
There are only two things to remember to ensure the success of this dish-the pasta should be perfectly al dente and it must be served fresh off the pan.
