Spaghetti With Anchovies And Breadcrumbs Food

PASTA WITH BREAD CRUMBS AND ANCHOVIES, SICILIAN STYLE

Steps:

• Place olive oil and garlic in a heavy skillet and gently cook the garlic over medium heat until golden. Discard garlic. Add the red-pepper flakes and anchovies and mash to a puree with the back of a wooden spoon over very low heat, about one minute. Remove from heat. Do not allow oil to get very hot. Can be prepared in advance to this point.
• Cook the spaghettini in boiling, salted water until cooked al dente. While the pasta is cooking, transfer three tablespoons of the pasta cooking water to the anchovy-oil mixture in order to stretch the sauce; reheat carefully. Drain pasta, then transfer it to the skillet and toss with the hot sauce. Divide evenly on four heated dishes, sprinkle with parsley and serve at once. Pass the bread crumbs.

PASTA WITH ANCHOVIES AND BREADCRUMBS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil. While the water is heating, remove the crusts from the bread, if you like, and tear or cut it into cubes.
• Put bread cubes, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt in a food processor and pulse to make coarse breadcrumbs. You should have about 2 cups of crumbs, a bit more if the crusts are not removed.
• Heat the 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy-duty pot over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add the breadcrumbs. Cook, stirring frequently, until the crumbs are lightly brown and crisp, about 5 to 12 minutes, depending on the moisture in the bread.
• Transfer the breadcrumbs to a bowl, toss with lemon zest, if using, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to al dente according to package instructions, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Drain the pasta and set aside.
• Wipe out the pot used for the breadcrumbs. Add 3 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the halved garlic cloves and cook until lightly brown, about 2 minutes.
• Remove and discard the garlic pieces. Add the anchovies and crushed red pepper to the garlic-flavored oil and cook for 1 minute longer. Add the lemon juice, if using.
• Add the pasta to the pot and toss, cooking, until warmed through. Add some cooking water to loosen the mixture as needed. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and more crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.
• Plate the pasta in wide, shallow pasta bowls and top with a generous amount of garlic breadcrumbs. Garnish with chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese, if using. Serve with lemon wedges, if desired.

PASTA WITH 15-MINUTE GARLIC, OIL, AND ANCHOVY SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook spaghettini in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente; drain, reserving 3 Tbsp. pasta cooking liquid.
• Meanwhile, cook anchovies, garlic, red pepper flakes, 1 cup oil, and a pinch of salt in a large skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until anchovies dissolve and garlic is tender, 6-7 minutes (do not brown). Stir in parsley, then remove from heat.
• While anchovy sauce is cooking, heat remaining 3 Tbsp. oil in a small skillet over medium. Add panko and cook, stirring often, until golden, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then transfer to paper towels to cool.
• Return pasta to pot. Stir in reserved pasta cooking liquid, then anchovy sauce and half of the panko mixture. Cook over medium, stirring constantly, until heated through, 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Serve topped with Parmesan and remaining panko mixture.

SPAGHETTI WITH SMOKED ANCHOVIES, CHILLI BREADCRUMBS & FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti in a large, lightly salted pan of boiling water for about 8 mins until al dente.
• Meanwhile, heat 1½ tbsp of the oil in a frying pan. Fry the breadcrumbs over a medium heat along with the garlic and chilli flakes, stirring, until the breadcrumbs are golden and crunchy. Stir in the parsley, transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Wipe the pan clean, then heat another 1½ tbsp of the oil in the pan. Fry the eggs, spooning the hot oil over the eggs as they fry, until cooked to your liking.
• Drain the pasta, reserving a little of the cooking water. Toss with most of the fried breadcrumbs, the remaining oil, a splash of the reserved cooking water and the anchovies. Divide the spaghetti between four bowls, top each with a fried egg and sprinkle over some freshly ground pepper and any remaining breadcrumbs.

PASTA WITH ANCHOVIES AND BREAD CRUMBS

Steps:

• In a large heavy skillet over low heat, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add the bread crumbs, and stir constantly until they are toasted and golden brown. Transfer to a small serving bowl, and set aside.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, combine 1/3 cup of the olive oil with the garlic cloves. Saute until lightly browned. Remove and discard the garlic. Add the tomato extract and 1 cup of warm water. Stir until the extract is dissolved. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Fill a large pot 3/4 full of water; salt lightly and bring to a boil. Add the spaghetti, and cook until al dente, 7 to 9 minutes. While the spaghetti is cooking, select a skillet large enough to fit over the top of the pot. Using the skillet as a double boiler, combine the anchovies and remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Place the pan on top of the spaghetti pot, and stir the anchovies until they are dissolved and creamy. Remove the skillet and, using a rubber spatula, scrape the anchovies into the tomato mixture. Simmer together for 2 minutes.
• Reserve 1 cup of the spaghetti cooking water, and set it aside. Place the spaghetti in a large serving bowl, and top with the tomato sauce. Mix thoroughly, adding a little of the reserved liquid if necessary. Sprinkle with the parsley and some of the bread crumbs. Serve immediately, passing the remaining bread crumbs on the side.
