SAUCE - #2 - putanesca


working girl's sauce. why? ladies of the night used to put this sauce in their windows to attract potential male customers. ow ow.

this is made the same way as red sauce, but after the step where the onion is soft add a handful of Calamata Olives (pitted and halved), a couple tablespoons capers (drained) and a couple of chopped anchovies fillets. if you like really spicy, add more red pepper flakes. cook until the anchovies are liquid... couple of minutes. then finish cooking as with the red sauce.
