100 gram anchovy fillets

1/3 cup (80ml) canola oil

2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped

375 gram spaghettini

1/2 cup finely chopped parsley leaves

Method

1.Process walnuts in a food processor until chopped, without becoming a paste. Set aside. Drain anchovies, rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towel. Chop finely and set aside.

2.Heat oil in a medium frying pan on medium-low, add anchovies and garlic and cook for 4 minutes, stirring, until golden, without burning. Add 1 cup water, increase heat and simmer for 5 minutes, until liquid reduces by half.

3.Meanwhile, cook spaghettini in a large saucepan of boiling, salted water according to packet directions. Drain well, return to pan and add anchovy sauce. Toss for several minutes on low heat, until pasta is well coated. Toss through walnuts and parsley and serve with salad, if you like.
