|
|
| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Place the anchovies and oil in a large covered casserole. Mash together. Add the onions, garlic, tomatoes, wine, salt, oregano, and sugar.
|
2. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven for 10 minutes or more, stirring from time-to-time.
|
3. Add to hot, cooked, drained spaghetti. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
|
|
COOKING THE SPAGHETTI:
|
1. Fill a 2-quart casserole (12-inch by 9-inch) 2/3 full with water.
|
2. Heat in the microwave oven, covered, until the water reaches the boiling point.
|
3. Add the spaghetti and cook, uncovered, for 7 to 9 minutes or until it reaches the "al dente" stage, stirring several times. Drain.
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
"Al dente" means that when bitten into there is a slight resistance to the teeth. Nothing is much more disappointing than over-cooked, mushy spaghetti. It is also tasteless. A quarter cup of snipped parsley, cooked into the sauce, is a delightful additive.
