Method
Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Toss the Pasta: Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta in the garlic oil. Season with salt to taste.
Serve: Stir in the chopped parsley and serve immediately, with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
