Rustic Tuscan Pasta

If you like capers and anchovies, you will love this pasta.

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, chopped
4 anchovy fillets, roughly chopped
1 tablespoons capers
4 ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
Handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
1 cup tomato sauce
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or to taste
Sea salt, to taste
1 lb pasta, cooked and drained, pasta water saved
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Heat a heavy-bottomed sauté pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil, garlic, anchovies, and capers. Sauté for about 1 minute. Add the fresh tomatoes and basil and sauté for another minute or so.  Add the tomato sauce, crushed red pepper flakes and sea salt to taste. Sauté, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Add the pasta, and a bit of the pasta water for consistency.  Adjust seasoning as desired.  Serve immediately. Top with the grated Parmesan.

Enjoy!
