Shallot, Anchovy, Caper & Garlic Pasta

Some strong flavours here, making for a lively midweek supper. The important thing is to time the pasta so that it is ready just as the sauce is. The Panko breadcrumbs provide a nice crunchiness. A glass of robust red wine is a pleasant accompaniment.

Steps
- 1
Cook the pasta according to instructions in slightly salted, boiling water to reach the al dente point ready for Step 5 below. Drain in a colander, reserving 1/2 cup of the pasta water in case needed at Step 5 below, and add a small knob of the butter. Keep warm.
- 2
Melt a little more of the butter in a small frying pan and cook the breadcrumbs, tossing or stirring occasionally, on a medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes, or until turning golden. Season lightly with black pepper but definitely do not use salt. Set aside but keep warm.
- 3
Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter in a large frying or sauté pan and gently fry the shallots in a medium-high heat until turning translucent - about 4-5 minutes, stirring only if necessary to avoid sticking.
- 4
Add the garlic and chili and cook for a further 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then add the anchovies and capers, stir well and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 5
Add the pasta, stir well to coat thoroughly. Add a little of the reserved pasta water if necessary to prevent sticking and serve immediately onto warmed pasta dishes. Garnish with the warm seasoned breadcrumbs, then finally sprinkle the Parmesan cheese.
