Italian Pasta Puttanesca
Ingredients:
- 12 oz (340g) spaghetti or your favorite pasta
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4-6 anchovy fillets, chopped
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives, chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)
Steps:
Step 1: Cook the pasta according to package instructions in a pot of salted boiling water. Reserve a cup of pasta water before draining.
Step 2: In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped anchovies, sautéing until the anchovies dissolve into the oil.

Step 4: Season the sauce with salt and black pepper according to your taste.
Step 5: Add the cooked and drained pasta to the pan, tossing it with the sauce. If the mixture seems dry, add some of the reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.
