Orecchiette with anchovies and sun dried sweet peppers.



Few months ago I received a great present from a close friend who lives in Basilicata (deep South of Italy).
I received a lot of dried local pasta like orecchiette and cavatelli, wild boar salami, local cheese and much more.
I received also a big packet of sun dried sweet peppers which are typical of Basilicata.
I still have some of them and I used those peppers in a quick but very tasty recipe combined with some orecchiette left.
If you can't find orecchiette you can use spaghetti, penne, maccheroni of any kind. :)

2 servings:

3 medium sun dried sweet peppers 

2 anchovies in oil

3 tablespoons tomato sauce

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 garlic clove

2 cups orecchiette (or the serving size you like of the pasta you have)

Let orecchiette boil in a big pot of salted water, if they're dried they should boil for 14-16 minutes (taste them).
In a pan heat extra-virgin olive oil, add chopped peppers (without seeds) and garlic and stir frying for a couple of minutes then add anchovies and let them "melt" with peppers.
Remove the garlic, add the tomato sauce and stir well.
Cook for 2-3 minutes more then use a blender and reduce the sauce to cream.
Season your pasta hot with this sauce and eat immediately, it's sooo tasty!

  3. A motivating discussion is definitely worth comment.

    I believe that you need to write more about this subject matter, it might not be
    a taboo subject but generally people do not talk about such issues.

    To the next! Cheers!!
