Preparation

How to prepare Orange spaghetti with anchovies

Preparing orange spaghetti with anchovies takes very little time, so just organize your time: start immediately by putting the water for the pasta on the stove, meanwhile cut off the two ends of the orange 1 and then peel it completely 2; when the pulp is completely separated from the skin, start sectioning it by removing the segments of the fruit with the knife blade 3.

Cut the orange into small pieces 4, chop the anchovy fillets 5. In a pan, let the oil become fragrant with the garlic clove 6,

then shortly after remove it 7, add the anchovy fillets 8, and let them cook for a moment 9.

Then add the orange pieces 10 and let them become flavored 11, then deglaze with Cointreau 12 being very careful about the possible flame (if it happens, don't worry, it will extinguish in a very short time).

In a non-stick pan, pour the breadcrumbs 13 and let them toast for a few minutes 14. At this point, the water for the pasta will be boiling, so pour in the spaghetti 15 and adjust the salt.

When they are cooked, drain them and pour them into the pan with the sauce 16, add the toasted breadcrumbs 17, and finish with the mint leaves 18. Stir and serve the orange spaghetti immediately.

Storage

It is advisable to consume the orange spaghetti with anchovies immediately, without long waiting times.

Advice

When I have little time, or if I'm too tired, I use canned anchovy fillets, but sometimes I also like to use fresh anchovies! In that case, the cooking time is a bit longer. For this recipe, I prefer to use navel oranges, but when I can't find them, I readily use whatever I have at home.
