If you're a big fan of tomato pasta and you enjoy bold, spicy flavors, this Spaghetti all'Assassina is just right for you!
Ingredients for 4 people- 400 g of Armando spaghetti
- 1 chili pepper
- 1 clove of garlic
- 5 tablespoons of olive oil
- 350 g of tomato puree
- Salt to taste
- FOR THE TOMATO BROTH
- 2 liters of water
- 2 tablespoons of tomato paste
- 1 level tablespoon of coarse salt
Start with the tomato broth: pour the water into a saucepan and bring it to a boil; add the tomato paste and salt.
Pour the olive oil into a large pan and add the garlic and finely chopped chili pepper.
Cook over medium-low heat, letting it sizzle for a few minutes.
At this point, pour in the tomato puree together with half a glass of water and cook the sauce for 15/20 minutes.
Take the raw Armando spaghetti and add it to the pan without stirring for at least 5 minutes. After this time, you'll see a crust forming.
It's time to add the tomato broth, making sure to pour it on the sides of the pan, not in the center.
Cook the spaghetti, turning it a few times to allow a crust to form. Let it dry thoroughly and... Enjoy!
