Tailor Made Spaghetti

• 1 pound thin spaghetti
• 1 head garlic cut into large chunks
• 1/2 pound sun dried tomatoes in olive oil
• 8 calamata olives pitted
• 1 tablespoon capers
• 3 3/4 ounces sardines in olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper chopped fresh
• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 3 sprigs basil
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs toasted

1. Add 2 tbsp of the oil to a large saute pan. Pour the garlic in it. When it takes on a light golden color remove the garlic from the pan and set aside, leave the oil in the pan.
2. Add the Sun Dried tomatoes, calamata olives, capers, sardines (without the oil) and fresh hot pepper. Cook for 2 minutes or until oil in the pan turns red.
3. Pour the whole mixture into a food processor and blend lightly (about 5 seconds); you want to see small chunks, not a paste.
4. Return the mixture to the saute pan without applying heat, add the garlic and the remainder of the olive oil, and with a spoon blend ingredients together.
5. Prepare spaghetti as directed on box. When ready, take a cup of the liquid in which the spaghetti where cooked in, and set aside. Drain the rest of the water.
6. Spoon spaghetti over the sauce add the basil and on a medium flame work the spaghetti and sauce together until completely blended. If the spaghetti are too dry add the reserved liquid in which you cooked the spaghetti a little at a time, and as needed.
7. Serve immediately.
