Pasta Puttanesca
"Clipped from blog "http://fromaliceskitchen.blogspot.com/" who got it from Martha Stewart recipes. If you love garlic, salt & pasta this is a wonderfully aromatic and tasty dish. Don't be put off by the anchovies, they are in other foods you may already eat such as Caesar dressing and Worcestershire sauce!"
