Spaghetti with Garlic, Anchovies and Toasted Breadcrumbs
Inspired by techniques from NYT Cooking and Serious Eats.
This follows the classic spaghetti aglio e olio method, but melts anchovies into the garlic oil and finishes with toasted breadcrumbs, lemon zest and parsley, using chilli flakes in place of fresh chilli and a lighter-salted pasta water.
