YOU WILL NEED
200g spaghetti
50g tin anchovies in oil
1tbsp capers, drained and rinsed

2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
½tsp crushed chilli flakes
HOW TO DO IT
1 Cook the spaghetti in a saucepan of boiling, salted water according to the pack instructions.
2 Meanwhile, pour the oil from the tin of anchovies into a medium frying pan. Add the capers and cook for 2-3 mins until crisp. Transfer the capers to a plate (leaving the oil behind).
3 Reduce the heat to low and add the olive oil and garlic to the frying pan. Cook for 5 mins until softened, but not coloured, then add the anchovies and cook for 2 mins, breaking them up with a wooden spoon. Stir in the chilli flakes.
4 Drain the pasta, reserving about 100ml of the cooking water and toss both with the anchovies over medium heat to create a light and glossy sauce.
5 Divide between shallow bowls, grind over plenty of black pepper, and scatter over the crispy capers to serve.
