EASY PASTA PUTTANESCA



Easy Pasta Puttanesca image

Pasta Puttanesca literally means "Harlot's Pasta". This zippy, mildly spicy sauce was made by the ladies of the night in Italy after a day's work. Use whatever noodle style your family enjoys, but I recommend traditional linguine or penne. This dish is extremely adaptable to your own taste. Try adding peppers or Italian sausage for a different flavor.

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb spaghetti
1/3 cup olive oil
4 -6 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
1/2 cup kalamata olive, diced
2 -3 tablespoons capers, drained

1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons pecorino romano cheese, grated
freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook spaghetti to very al dente (should be slightly more undercooked than usual as it will be reheated in the sauce later). Drain, and set aside.
  • To the empty pasta pot, add the olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes and anchovy paste. Heat on medium heat, stirring occasionally until garlic starts to sizzle and anchovy paste begins to melt into the oil. Add the olives and capers, stirring occasionally until heated through and fragrant.
  • Add the tomatoes and stir, allowing them to heat through. Add the basil, oregano, Pecorino, and freshly cracked black pepper. Stir to combine and let simmer for about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the reserved pasta, toss to heat-through, and serve with additional grated cheese. Then enjoy an authentic Italian meal!

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Pasta

Time 30m

Yield 2-3

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 TBSP. extra virgin olive oil
½ medium cauliflower, (about 10 oz.), cored & cut into small florets
2-3 med. cloves of garlic, minced
¼ tsp. (or just a pinch) red pepper flakes
½ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. dried oregano
1 cup crushed tomato sauce
½ cup warm water
¼ cup Kalamata olives, pitted & chopped
1 TBSP. small capers, rinsed well
8 oz. Gemelli pasta (or similar)
2 TBSP. fresh parsley, minced
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
--- more sea salt & freshly ground black pepper (if needed)

Steps:

  • Place a large, 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil when the skillet is hot, and cook the cauliflower florets for about 6-8 minutes, tossing until it is lightly brown on all sides. Next add the garlic, the pepper flakes, the salt and the oregano. Cook for another two minutes, or, until the garlic is fragrant but not browned. Stir in the tomatoes and the warm water, the olives, and the capers. Simmer gently for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile cook the pasta in a medium pot for about 8 minutes, or, until it is al dente (cooked through, but still firm).
  • Lift the pasta from the pot with a slotted spoon and transfer it to the skillet with the sauce. Turn the heat down and add some of the cooking water to the skillet to loosen up the sauce. Drizzle the pasta with a little olive oil. Remove the skillet from the stove top and add most of the Parmesan cheese and the parsley. Check the consistency of the sauce. If necessary, add some more of the cooking water to thin it out a bit, as needed. Check the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  • Serve at once on warm plates with the rest of the grated Parmesan cheese.
