The courgette pasta, courgette cut into long spaghetti strands (you do need a spiral slicer/spiralizer), is wonderful when combined with a flavoursome sauce. This anchovy sauce is both salty and sharp in taste, the perfect addition to this dish!
4 anchovies (tinned)
1 onion, chopped
1 tbsp tomato puree
Chili flakes
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp capers
400 g chopped tomatoes
200 ml black olives, chopped
A handful of dry roasted pecans, pine nuts and pistachio nuts
Parmesan cheese, grated
5 courgettes, spiralized
