q.s.
For the "Muddica"

Directions

It takes 5 steps in 25 min
1 - To put a frying pan on the heat with plenty of salted water
2 - To prepare muddica, put a frying pan on the stove with plenty of olive oil and the anchovies (those for muddica), let them melt and then add the breadcrumbs. Leave it on medium heat until it has absorbed all the oil and has acquired a nice brown color, then set it aside
3 - In the same pan where the muddica was prepared, add plenty of olive oil, garlic cloves, chili pepper, and the remaining anchovies in oil. Cook until the anchovies have dissolved, then remove the garlic and turn off the heat
Tip: Chili pepper gives me an extra kick, but if you don't like it, feel free to avoid using it
4 - Cook the pasta and drain it very al dente, making sure to reserve a cup of cooking water.
Throw the pasta into the pan with oil and chili pepper and sauté for one or two minutes with a bit of cooking water (only what is necessary to moisten the pasta slightly)
5 - Plate by sprinkling with toasted breadcrumbs and a little parsley

Cost

The few anchovies in oil certainly don't raise the price, each portion costs around one euro

Health

To be a pasta dish, it is definitely not among the heaviest, as the only topping is a few anchovies and breadcrumbs
