Bigoli con Salsa Recipe

This is a deceptively simple and decidedly delicious dish, but the pasta is very important — you must use Bigoli.

Ingredients

  • 250 g Bigoli pasta
  • 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 8 anchovy fillets
  • 1 medium red onion chopped finely
  • 1 good bunch of Italian parsley chopped finely
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of water to the boil for the pasta. Add a tablespoon of good salt.
  • In a large sauté pan over low-medium heat, add the olive oil, the anchovies and the onion.
  • Stir the mix, helping to break down the anchovies. This should take around 10 minutes.
  • When you have a thick gravy, the sauce is ready, so put your pasta on.
  • When the pasta is al dente, drain it and add it to the sauce. Mix through most of the parsley and serve. Add a little parsley on top to make it pretty. Season and add more olive oil if you wish and enjoy with a medium to full bodied white wine.
