Boil the spaghetti in salted water for 9 minutes until al dente.
Turn the garlic, anchovies, and red pepper flakes in olive oil for 2 minutes.
Add the tomato puree and simmer for 8 minutes.
Add the olives and capers to the sauce.
Reserve half a cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.
Toss the spaghetti with the sauce for 2 minutes.
Serve hot with parsley.
💡 Tip: Melting anchovy in the oil gives the sauce deep salinity rather than a strong fish taste.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve at once with parsley and extra olives.
