• 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 can of whole tomatoes (400g)
• Salt to taste

2. While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for one minute or until the garlic becomes fragrant. Be sure not to burn the garlic as it will give a bitter taste.

3. Add the red pepper flakes to the skillet and stir. Cook for another minute until the flakes turn slightly brown.

4. Pour the can of whole tomatoes into the skillet. Use a wooden spoon to break up the tomatoes into small pieces. Stir the mixture well and reduce heat to a simmer.

6. Drain the pasta once it’s ready.

7. Combine the cooked pasta and the sauce in the skillet over low heat, stirring well to coat the pasta in the sauce.

8. Divide the pasta evenly among the serving plates. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and grated pecorino cheese (optional).

Pasta all’arrabbiata is a versatile dish and can be served as a main course or as a side dish with grilled chicken or beef. You can also add other ingredients to this recipe such as olives, capers, and onions. If you prefer a spicier dish, you can add more red pepper flakes to the sauce.
