How To make Puttanesca a La Andy's Colonial Tavern

x

1/4 c Olive oil
3 Cloves garlic, minced
35 oz Peeled Italian plum tomatoes
-seeded, drained & roughly -chopped 1 tb Capers, well rinsed
2/3 c Oil-cured black olives,
-pitted and roughly chopped 1/2 ts Dried red pepper flakes
1 ts Dried basil
1 ts Dried oregano
1/8 ts Freshly ground black pepper
Salt, to taste 1 lb Spaghetti
2 tb Minced fresh parsley leaves
Heat the oil in a nonreactive large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, stir, remove the pan from the heat, and allow the hot oil to turn the garlic pale gold, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, capers, olives, red pepper flakes, basil, oregano, and black pepper, return to medium-low heat, and simmer for 10 minutes. Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper if needed. Reduce the heat to very low. Cook the spaghetti in plenty of well-salted, boiling water until al dente; drain. Toss the spaghetti with the sauce, sprinkle on the fresh parsley, and serve.
