Spaghetti all’Assassina

Ingredients

• 4 cups Water
• ¼ cup Tomato Paste
• 4 Garlic
• 1 Kosher Salt
• 1 Black Pepper
• ¼ cup Olive Oil
• 2 tbsp Calabrian Chili Paste
• 1 cup Tomato Passata
• 1 Parmesan

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the tomato broth: In a saucepan, whisk together water, tomato paste, 2 whole garlic cloves, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.

2. 2

   In a separate large pan, heat the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and Calabrian chili paste, cooking until fragrant.

3. 3

   Add the tomato passata to the large pan and cook down.

4. 4

   Add the raw spaghetti to the large pan, layering it in the tomato mixture.

5. 5

   Begin adding the warm tomato broth to the pan a ladle at a time, allowing the liquid to be absorbed and the bottom of the pasta to fry and 'burn' slightly, flipping as needed until the pasta is cooked and crispy.

6. 6

   Serve the spaghetti topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
