Preparation

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil and cook the penne until 1 minute shy of al dente. Reserve 100 ml of pasta cooking water.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a wide frying pan over medium-low heat. Add thinly sliced garlic and dried chilli flakes, sizzling gently for 1 to 2 minutes without burning.

3. 3

   Pour in the tinned crushed tomatoes and salt, stirring to combine. Simmer gently over medium heat for 10 to 12 minutes until rich and slightly thickened.

4. 4

   Drain the penne and tip it straight into the simmering sauce along with a splash of reserved pasta water.

5. 5

   Toss the pasta over medium-high heat for 1 minute until every tube is coated in glossy, spicy sauce.

6. 6

   Garnish with finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley and serve immediately.
