Puttanesca - Italian Recipe

Puttanesca

🌍 Italian, Naples/Campania Difficulty: ●●●○○

A pantry sauce from Naples assembled in the time it takes to boil spaghetti. The anchovies dissolve into the oil; the capers and olives provide salt and brine. Do not add extra salt until you have tasted — the stored ingredients carry enough.

• 4 anchovy fillets
• 3 tbsp capers
• 100g black olives, pitted
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tsp chilli flakes
• 4 tbsp olive oil

Method

1. Sautéing — Sauté garlic and anchovies in oil until anchovies dissolve.
2. Adding — Add tomatoes, capers, olives, chilli. Simmer 15 min.
3. Tossing — Toss with cooked pasta.
