Ingredients
- 14 oz Spaghetti
- 26 oz tomatoes , peeled, seeded and cut into very small dice
- 2 tablespoons salted capers
- 1 small bunch flat-leaf parsley , finely chopped
- 1 oz anchovy fillets in olive oil
- 4 oz black olives from Gaeta , pitted
- 4 clove red garlic
- 2 dried chillies , chopped
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- salt
Instructions
- Rinse the capers under running water to remove the excess salt, then dry and roughly chop them.
- Rinse and drain the olives, and cut lengthwise into 2 or 3 slices.
- To cook the pasta, place a large saucepan filled with plenty of salted water on the heat and bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven, pour the oil, whole garlic cloves and dried chillies. Add the anchovy fillets and capers.
- Brown over a medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, so that the anchovies melt.
- Add the tomatoes, stir, and cook for another 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in boiling water according to the package directions, until al dente.
- When the sauce is ready, remove the garlic cloves, and add the olives and half of the flat-leaf parsley.
- Drain the pasta and pour it into the sauce.
- Fry the pasta over medium-high heat for 30 seconds, or just long enough to combine all the flavors.
- Serve the spaghetti alla puttanesca piping hot.
