Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/3 cup olive oil
2 medium garlic cloves -- pressed
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh oregano -- (1 - 2 T.), or dill, rosemary, minced
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese -- finely grated
1 cup feta cheese -- crumbled
1 cup roasted cashews -- unsalted
lemon wedges -- 1 per serving
12 ounces dried pasta -- spirals or vermicelli
A few hours before mealtime, stir together the olive oil, garlic, and minced
herbs in a small saucepan. Set aside at room temperature so the flavors can
blend. When ready to eat, bring several quarts of water to a boil and cook the
pasta until al dente. Drain well. Meanwhile, barely heat the olive oil mixture
over low heat. In a warm bowl, toss the hot noodles with the oil and Parmesan,
then with the feta and cashews. Serve immediately with a lemon wedge on each
plate. Pass the pepper grinder, if desired.

For this recipe, it is preferable to put the garlic through a press rather than
mincing it with a knife, as you want the garlic to liquefy a vit and distribute
well in the oil. If you're using dill or oregano, 2 tablespoons will not be too
much. With the woodier rosemary, use only 1 tablespoon.
