Spaghetti Puttanesca

We were on a cruise recently and the ship we were on had a separate pizza restaurant! So of course we had pizza a few times. The varieties were extensive — the chef made pizzas with all sorts of toppings. Mostly I like (and ate) plain pizza Margherita, sometimes topped with arugula, but one time I chose Puttanesca. It was an OMG moment.

Puttanesca is not for everyone. It’s salty and very tangy.

But I absolutely love it.

I’ve made Puttanesca sauce for spaghetti many times, usually with canned San Marzano tomatoes. But the plum tomatoes at the market recently were too good to pass up, so I went to my trusted recipe drawer, “sauce folder” and found my fresh tomato version. It was as good as I had remembered.

Check it out below.

Spaghetti with Fresh Puttanesca Sauce

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 medium cloves garlic, chopped

3 anchovies, chopped (or 1 teaspoon anchovy paste)

4-5 large plum tomatoes

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

pinch or two of crushed red pepper

freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2-3 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained

12-15 mixed pitted black and green imported olives, cut coarsely

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the onion and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic and cook briefly. Add the anchovies (or paste), mix briefly, then add the tomatoes, basil and red pepper. Cook, over low-medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 7-8 minutes. Stir in the capers and olives and cook for another 5-6 minutes or until it has reached the desired consistency (use 2 tablespoons of capers if you want it less tangy).

Makes enough for 1/2 pound pasta

Things I wanna like so bad but don't +explanations:

Tea: it's healthy and aesthetic but it tastes like when you don't put enough flavoring into water so it's like slightly sweet but instead of sweet, it's bitter and tastes like leaves (bc it is.)

Coffee: I would love to channel my inner white girl and enjoy a pumpkin spice latte so bad but no matter how much milk and sugar you put into it, IT TASTES LIKE FANCY DIRT

Moths: I'm scared of moths and butterflies but moths are so aesthetic 😭

Marshmallows: I like the texture and they're fun to eat

Mushrooms: low-key, everytime I eat them I like to myself and say I like them but unless it's just a few bites of mushroom with other things, I honestly don't. If there's too much, it's gross 😭

Peppers: I dislike them SO much that I can taste if there was peppers on things and it was taken off. I don't like spicy stuff but to prove a point I ate a spoon full of the last dab hot sauce from Hot Ones and I was more concerned about the PEPPER FLAVOR than I was about the LITERAL BURNING SENSATION AND RUNNY NOSE. This one isn't even a wish I liked it, I just wish I didn't find it to be ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING

Mangos: I'm latina and I don't like mangos 😭

Tamales: Again, I'm an embarrassment to my Latino side of the family. I just can't with the texture, it's JUST the texture. The flavor is ok, I just can barely get it down 😭

Literally any sport other than volleyball or Hockey: I like two very unpopular to talk about sports and hate football, baseball, and soccer. They're so boringggg I can'ttttt.

Spaghetti sauce on spaghetti: It has to be separate, I occasionally try it thinking maybe I've matured but it's always a miserable experience.

a fun thing you can do when you're a grownup is buy a bunch of ingredients and make 6 litres of spaghetti sauce in a big pot and divide it up into a bunch of containers and put it in the freezer!

I set my bowl down for 2 seconds to grab the parmesan and find this murder scene when I turned back around. Ignoring her lunch fruits in favor of Our Lunch (pasta).

Back to Saizeriya (サイゼリヤ) for our budget Italian dinner. That perfect poached egg in the menu is what attracted me to order the Bismark Pizza (S$7.90). Beside the gooey egg yolk, it had plenty of spinach, bacon and stringy mixed cheese over a crispy dough base.

Mum had only one selection from the menu, the same tried and tested (by her) Black Pepper Chicken Spaghetti (S$5.90). Come with noodles and grilled chicken cubes tossed in black pepper sauce.
