Spaghetti Puttanesca (Extra Tuna Remix)

Spaghetti Puttanesca (Extra Tuna Remix)


1. heat pan on low heat. mash both cloves garlic--wooden spoon, heel of hand, whatever--and separate into two equal portions.

2. put anchovies and a few tablespoons of their packing oil in pan. take half the garlic and add to anchovies. add cayenne pepper. saute on low heat (hotter, and it'll make the garlic bitter) until anchovies are "dissolved" and garlic is fragrant.

3. increase heat, and once pan begins to sizzle, add tuna. stir tuna into mixture, and coat bottom of pan. leave tuna without stirring until it begins to brown. add can olives, and liquid from can.

4. add can tomatoes and liquid, add remaining garlic, and mix in well. add capers. add the thai fish sauce. (keeps the tuna from overpowering the anchovies without having to use the additional nutritional nightmare that is the rest of the anchovies.) reduce heat, stirring occasionally.

5. in separate pot, boil a few cups of water seasoned with a few tablespoons salt. cook pasta until al dente. drain pasta in a colander.

6. remove sauce from heat, pour into pasta pot. pour pasta back into pasta pot. stir.

7. serve with garlic bread, caesar salad (good use for the rest of the anchovies), and ground black pepper to taste. will probably not need parmsesean cheese or salt. would be good with a red wine like a valpolicella.
