I found this on the internet a long time ago and have used it many times. A great side to serve at a bbq. Lots of garlic so not for the faint of heart. Photo courtesy of photobucket.com

I love the translation of the recipe title .... but the original is "pasta alla puttanesca" meaning a little bit more than" mean woman"!
The recipe is just fine but the garlic is too much!

Tart, mild heat, garlicky, clean taste, smooth and all the flavors could be tasted by themselves and all worked in harmony with each other. Wow, this was great! Everyone here has a cold (except me) and all enjoyed this without a doubt. Cleaned a few noses a bit too. Used 6 large cloves of garlic (we are serious garlic freaks and just came back from the garlic festival in nearby Saugerties 2 weekends ago.) Will be taking this recipe with me next year. Outstanding is an understatement!
Thanks!

This sounds great ! I love all the fresh ingredients & how easy it is to put together. I'll make it just for ME, cos my hubby thinks you have to have a HEAVY red or white sauce if you're gonna eat pasta. :oP
