These spaghetti are tossed with no tomato sauce.
This sauce is very easy and quick to do. You can make it while your spaghetti are boiling.

Add the olive oil, anchovy fillets, capers, fresh and dried herbs, wine and hot pepper (if you like) in a non-stick frying pan. Season with salt and cook over a fierce heat for about 5 minutes or until the anchovies melt and wine is evaporated.
Meanwhile cook your spaghetti al dente stage following our instructions or package directions. Drain them very well and turn into the pan with the sauce. Sprinkle with some tablespoons of dry breadcrumbs, stir, return to high heat, saute them, stirring, and serve very hot.

Note

- You can avoid the wine. Saute the anchovy fillets, capers, aromatic herbs and hot pepper in the olive oil on a low heat until the anchovies melt. Drain the pasta and pour it into the pan. You can add a little ladle of the water in which you have cooked the pasta if you think your pasta is too dry.
- You can also use whole - wheat spaghetti. This recipe tastes fantastic with this kind of pasta. We also use felt or kamut spaghetti.

Healthy eating

- This is a main dish. Complete your meal with raw or cooked vegetables seasoned with half a tablespoon of olive oil and then fresh fruit. If you want to reduce calories under 400 you can use only 70 g of pasta per portion. Eat protein at dinner.
- If you want to drink a glass of wine remember you have to add 80-85 kCal per 100 ml.
- We remember you our original home recipes can be made without salt; there is a combination of flavours that substitutes salt. Other no salt recipes ...
