1. Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat, add the garlic and anchovies and cook for a minute, mashing the anchovies into the oil.
2. Add the tomatoes and the chilli and simmer for about 7 minutes until the sauce is glossy and thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in the capers, olives and parsley and cook for a minute longer. Taste for seasoning and add a little salt if necessary.
3. Toss the sauce with hot, cooked and drained spaghetti or other long pasta (about 400g dried weight). Serve immediately with parmesan scattered over, and a drizzle of olive oil.
