Chef tips
To get the best from your Arrabbiata, fry the chilli flakes and garlic in cold olive oil and heat slowly; this ensures the spicy flavour infuses the oil perfectly without burning. For a winning family meal, sprinkle over some kosher Parmesan or grated mozzarella. If the children prefer it milder, swap some chilli for sweet paprika for a rich, gentle sauce.
