Dinner Tonight: Spaghetti With Garlic, Anchovies, And Chili Recipe

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2-3 cloves garlic, slivered
• 6-8 anchovy fillets in olive oil, roughly chopped
• 2 dried red chilis, or 1 good pinch red pepper flakes
• 4 ounces good-quality spaghetti

1. Bring a pot of salty water to boil. Cook the pasta until al dente, reserving some pasta cooking water.
2. In the meantime, heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and chili and cook until the garlic is fragrant and soft, 1-2 minutes.
3. Add the anchovy fillets and mash them into the olive oil until they melt. Continue cooking until the garlic is quite soft and just beginning to turn golden, but not yet brown. Remove the red chilies if you used them.
4. Add the pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Add a little pasta cooking water and continue stirring to create a sauce with the olive oil. Serve immediately.
