Method

  1. Cook the spaghetti following packet instructions.
  2. Heat some oil in a frying pan and add the onion and garlic and cook for a minute or 2 until lightly browned. Add the peppers and cook for 2-3 minutes until starting to soften then add the red wine vinegar.
  3. Drain the spaghetti and tip into a bowl with the pepper mixture. Rinse out the pepper pan and reheat with some more oil, when it is very hot throw in the parsley and capers and fry until the parsley is bright green. Add the anchovies, if using, for a minute and tip the lot into the spaghetti.
  4. Season, toss together and dress with more olive oil. Serve with Parmesan.

Romano peppers

You can usually find long red romano peppers at the supermarket but ordinary red peppers will do as well.

    Anchovies certainly are not suitable for vegetarians but luckily they are labelled in this recipe as optional. Therefore I, a very strict vegetarian, will accept this as a recipe suitable for veggies.
