Serves – 2

Ingredients

FOR THE PASTA

200 g Ziti
400 g Polpa Mutti
4 anchovies
1 clove of garlic
2 Tablespoons pitted black olives
1 tablespoon of salted capers
A sprig of parsley
Ground chili pepper
2 tablespoons Oil
Salt

For the almond crumble

1 tablespoon heaped breadcrumbs
10 peeled almonds
25 g stale bread
10 ml Oil
Salt

Method

Bring plenty of salted water to the boil.
Peel the garlic, put it in a pan with the oil and heat over low heat. As soon as it starts to fry, remove the garlic and add the anchovies. Break them up using a wooden spoon.
Add the Mutti Finely Chopped Tomatoes, the olives and the previously washed capers to remove the excess salt. Season with salt, sprinkle with chilli and add a few chopped parsley leaves. Cook for 8/10 minutes
Prepare the crumble in a non-stick pan, placing the breadcrumbs, chopped stale bread in a blender and coarsely crushed almonds. Bring them to low heat and continue stirring until they turn a nice orange colour. Turn off the heat, add a tablespoon of oil and a sprinkle of salt.
Break the Ziti into 3 and cook them “al dente”, then drain well.
Sauté the Ziti in the Mediterranean sauce, serve with a sprinkling of chopped parsley and almonds crumble.

Enjoy!
