This quick and easy pasta recipe is perfect for a speedy midweek meal. Arrabbiata is a classic Italian spicy sauce made of tomatoes, chilli and garlic. We’ve added black olives and a sprinkling of basil and Parmesan to make it that bit extra special. Swap the Parmesan for vegetarian hard cheese to make this pasta vegetarian-friendly. See method

Method

Put the oil, onion, garlic and chilli in a pan and fry gently over a medium heat until soft. Add the sugar and vinegar and cook until the liquid has evaporated.
Stir in the tomato purée and the plum tomatoes. Put a lid on the pan and simmer for 10 mins until the tomatoes start to break up.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta following pack instructions.
Mix the olives into the tomato sauce and season to taste. Drain the cooked pasta and mix through the sauce. Garnish with a few basil leaves and grate over the cheese to serve.

Tip: Arrabbiata refers to an ‘angry’ sauce, so add a little more chilli if you like it extra spicy.
