Preparation method

Preparing the Tomato Broth

1

In a pot, stir together about 800 ml of water with the strained tomatoes, half of the tomato paste (50 g), and 1 tsp of fine salt. Bring the broth to a boil and keep warm over low heat, simmering gently.

Toasting & Cooking the Pasta

1

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet (preferably iron or stainless steel). Briefly sauté the finely chopped garlic cloves, finely sliced red chili peppers, and the remaining tomato paste (50 g) until wonderfully fragrant.

2

Lay the uncooked spaghetti flat in the skillet. Pour one or two ladles of the hot tomato broth over them and let the pasta sizzle over medium-to-high heat without moving them immediately.

Chef's tip

The secret of authentic Spaghetti all'Assassina lies in having the courage to toast them: the pasta should be allowed to get slightly crispy and caramelize to a dark red in the skillet before adding the next ladle of broth.

It is best to use an uncoated iron skillet to achieve the signature toasted crust.
