Directions
  • Heat a dash of olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the breadcrumbs and toast lightly. Then put them in a bowl and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add a good handful of coarse sea salt and cook the spaghetti until al dente.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the whole garlic clove, drained anchovy fillets and capers and sweat over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir frequently as you do so.
  • Chop the black olives and add them to the pan with the whole green olives. Now remove the garlic clove. Pour a ladle of pasta water and mix thoroughly.
  • Drain the finished pasta directly into the pan. Mix everything well and let it rest briefly.
  • Finally, place on deep plates, sprinkle with the toasted breadcrumbs and serve hot.
