We have arrabiata every week, and I think our one is probably better even than the one I had in the restaurant, particularly with my new recip advance. I think it makes a difference frying the herbs and spices first, really makes it smell good when I'm cooking it too. This week when I was making it (on my Monday day off, ready for tea that night) I forgot the chilli until the end, doh! But added paprika and oregano and a bit of rosemary in the oil first, fry gently, then add onion and garlic, fry more, then passata and then fresh basil. Then cooked chopped sausages to pad it out at the end (though Clare has meatballs). It is a delicious dinner. Just ate it reheated for lunch today which inspired me to post this, it was the best one yet.
