Penne all'Arrabbiata (spicy tomato pasta)
Recipe video above. “Arrabbiata” means “angry” in Italian and refers to how the spiciness of this classic Italian pasta! I love how this simple dish is made interesting with a good kick of chilli.To be authentic, use whole peeled tomatoes and mash them up with a fork. For convenience, I use crushed tomatoes. SPICINESS - See Note 1.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Sauté - Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add garlic and stir for ⏱️ 10 seconds. Add cayenne and chilli flakes. Cook for ⏱️ 1 minute, or until garlic is light golden.
2
Add tomato, salt and pepper. Rinse out the tomato cans with the water and add into the pot.
3
Simmer - Turn up the heat to high, stir, then once it comes to a simmer, turn back down to medium heat and simmer for ⏱️ 15 minutes. (Taste check at ⏱️ 10 min – if sour, add the sugar.)
4
Cook pasta - Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to the boil with the 1 tablespoon of salt. Add pasta and cook per packet directions.
5
Save water – Just before draining, give the pot a big stir (to agitate the starch) then scoop out 1 cup of the water and set aside. (Note 4) Drain pasta.
6
Toss – Add pasta into the sauce along with 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water. Toss well (still on the stove) until the pasta is coated with the pasta sauce. Use extra pasta cooking water if needed, to loosen.
7
Serve - Divide between bowls and serve immediately with parmesan and parsley, if using.
parmesan (, finely grated)
