Spaghetti With Anchovy Olive Sauce

Gourmet

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

5 large garlic cloves, sliced thin
1/3 cup olive oil
a 2-ounce can flat anchovies, drained, patted dry, and chopped
3/4 cup pimiento-stuffed olives, rinsed, drained well, and chopped fine
1 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 pound spaghetti

In a large heavy skillet (measuring at least 12 inches across top) cook
garlic in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until pale golden. Add
anchovies and cook, mashing them, until they dissolve into oil, about 1
minute. Stir in olives and parsley and remove skillet from heat.
In a kettle of salted boiling water cook spaghetti until al dente.
Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking liquid and drain spaghetti in a colander.
Add spaghetti and 1/2 cup reserved liquid to sauce. Heat pasta over
moderate heat, stirring and tossing it and adding more reserved liquid
as necessary, until it is coated well with sauce.

Serves 4 to 6.
