Ingredients

½ cup (50g) walnuts
100g anchovy fillets
1/3 cup (80ml) canola oil

375g spaghettini
½ cup finely chopped parsley leaves

kJ 2570, fat 30g, sat fat 4g.

Preparation

1. Process walnuts 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 frying pan on medium low, add anchovies and garlic and cook, stirring, for 4 minutes, until golden without burning. Add 1 cup water, increase heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes until liquid is reduced by half.

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

Hot Tips

Tongs or fork

Avoid using a barbecue fork when turning steaks or meat on the barbecue (opt for tongs instead). The fork will pierce the meat encouraging the precious juices to flow out, rather than stay inside the meat and keep it tender.

Kunserva

In Maltese cooking this rather sweet tomato paste is used in pasta sauces and to boost any dish with tomatoes in it, as well as in the favourite national snack called hobz biz-zejt.
