Main ingredient: spaghetti

Serving count not stated for this recipe, so quantities are shown as written.

Ingredients

  • 16 oz spaghetti
  • 8 oz tomato sauce
  • 6 oz tomato purée (passata)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Bring a large pot of well-salted water to the boil and cook the spaghetti until just tender, about 9–11 minutes. Reserve a cup of the pasta water and drain.
  2. Meanwhile, warm the oil in a deep pan and fry the cinnamon for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the tomato sauce and purée and simmer gently for about 10 minutes, until slightly thickened; season with salt and pepper.
  3. Add the drained spaghetti to the sauce with a splash of the reserved pasta water and toss over low heat for 1–2 minutes, until every strand is coated and glossy.
  4. Serve straight away in warm bowls.
