As you know, spaghetti is a staple food of traditional Italian cuisine, but today it is widespread and beloved throughout the world. Thus, spaghetti salad is very widespread in international cuisine and is in many variants.
I like to say that the best spaghetti salad recipe is the one made with what you have in the kitchen. Let’s show you what ingredients I had!
Let’s See the Ingredients!
I used 500 g of spaghetti, enough for a salad for four people. But if you do not have spaghetti in the kitchen, you can use another kind of pasta.
I also used a cucumber, two medium-sized red onions, one sweet red pepper and about 150 g of red radish.

And for added flavour, I also used a handful of chives.

How to Make the Best Spaghetti Salad Recipe?
First, we put the spaghetti to a boil. For this, we put the water to boil in a soup pot, with a tablespoon of sea salt. When boiling water, put the spaghetti and boil according to the directions on the packaging, usually about 8-10 minutes.

During this time, we prepare vegetables. We clean and chop them, then put them in a larger bowl.

As you can see I didn’t put tomatoes in this recipe, but you can. Depending on your imagination, you can also put fruit, cheese or fried bacon, all of which can add an extra flavour.
It’s time to season the vegetables. That is, we add a teaspoon of sea salt, a teaspoon of freshly ground pepper and a teaspoon of vegetable mix.
We squeeze the juice from a lemon and sprinkle it with about 100 ml of extra virgin olive oil. I also add a tablespoon of dry oregano for more flavour. Mix everything and set aside the bowl.
We check the spaghetti, and if they have boiled, put them in a strainer and rinse them with cold water, to stop the boiling.

The spaghetti is still warm, we put them over the vegetables, and mix them lightly. It is better that the pasta does not cool completely, so it will absorb the aromas better.

Sprinkle over the chopped chives, leaving the salad aside, cool the pasta and mix the flavours. And that was it, the best spaghetti salad recipe is ready!
Come to dinner, the spaghetti salad is served!
We served this cold salad with a little grated cheddar on top, but it also goes with parmesan.
