Begin by preparing the arrabbiata sauce. In a large skillet, sauté the chopped onion with a generous dash of oil. Add the chopped garlic and the sliced hot peppers and let it all cook for 10 minutes. Add the white wine and allow it to reduce for about five minutes. Add the peeled and seeded tomatoes and leave them to cook for half an hour until the water evaporates.
Boil the spaghetti with plenty of water and salt, drain it and mix it with the sauce. Finish with some fresh basil leaves and Pecorino Romano or any other flavorful cheese.

‘- While you are cooking the tomatoes, add eight chopped dried tomatoes. Use the dried tomatoes that are sold rehydrated packed in oil with herbs. The result is amazing!
– The pasta will finish cooking in the sauce, so remove it from the water a few minutes early when you boil it. Then it will absorb a little liquid from the sauce.
– If you finish off the spaghetti all’arrabbiata with a roasted and chopped chicken breast, you’ll have a unique complete dish. But the arrabbiata universe does not stop at meat: you can complement the dish with pieces of cooked fish or even shrimp. It will always come out delicious!
– Try replacing the pasta with cooked chickpeas. Chickpeas all’arrabbiata are memorable!
