Spaghetti Arrabiata

Spaghetti arrabiata is a fiery spicy pasta that is soooo delicious! If you haven’t made it before, this is a must make!

Spaghetti Arrabiata is probably one of my favourite pastas, if it’s on the menu when I’m out I will most definitely order it!

It’s packed full of fresh ingredients, like fresh parsley, garlic, chillis and a good can of crushed tomatoes.

You could serve it with any pasta that you like, but I think that spaghetti goes well with the sauce!

My friends absolutely love this recipe when I make it for them and I think you will too, it’s a nice meat-free pasta that isn’t too heavy so it’s great to serve if you are having people over along with other dishes!

Also most importantly, it is so quick and easy to make!

Let me know if you love it!

Prep Time: 15 min

Cooking Time: 30 min

Serves: 4


Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil 

  • 2 red long chillis

  • 4 garlic cloves crushed 

  • 1 bunch flat parsley 

  • 1 TSP Italian herbs 

  • 1.5 can chopped tomatoes (600g)

  • Spaghetti or pasta of choice  

Method: 

In a fry pan, heat the olive oil over a low heat

Finely chop up the chillis and crush the garlic

Add into the pan and let it simmer for a few mins, make sure it doesn't burn so keep it on a low heat

Finely chop all the parsley, keep half of it aside for later

Add half the parsley into the pan with the Italian herbs and stir until combined

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and stir

Add in brown sugar and sea salt flakes to taste

Bring to a simmer and reduce to a low heat, cook for 15 mins

Meanwhile, cook your pasta (remember water needs to be as salty as the sea !)

Drain your pasta and add into the sauce

Mix until the pasta is coated in sauce

Add another drizzle of olive oil and top with the remaining parsley

Serve with fresh basil and Parmesan!
