This classic Spaghetti alla Puttanesca is a vibrantly flavoured Italian dish that relies on store-cupboard staples to create a sophisticated meal in minutes. The sauce is a punchy combination of rich tomatoes, salty Kalamata olives, and briny capers, all balanced by the savoury depth of anchovies. It is a wonderful choice for a midweek dinner when you want something comforting yet light, offering a beautiful balance of acidity and spice that coats the pasta perfectly.
As a high-protein vegetarian-adjacent option, this recipe provides a satisfying and nutritious meal that doesn't compromise on taste. The addition of fresh parsley and a dusting of Parmesan adds a bright, creamy finish to the bold Mediterranean ingredients.

How to make Spaghetti alla Puttanesca
Heat oil in large pot over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes with puree, olives, anchovies, capers, oregano, and crushed red pepper. Simmer sauce over medium-low heat until thickened, breaking up tomatoes with spoon, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite. Drain pasta; return to same pot. Add sauce and parsley. Toss over low heat until sauce coats pasta, about 3 minutes. Serve with cheese.
