Press GO to start step-by-step mode and keep your screen awake as you cook.
Step 1.
Pour the boiling water from the kettle into a large saucepan over the heat and bring back to the boil. Season the water well with salt, then drop in the spaghetti. Cook for 1 minute less than the packet instructions say to.
Step 2.
Meanwhile, roughly chop the olives. Get a large frying pan over a high heat and drizzle in a good glug of olive oil. Add the 'nduja to the pan and fry, smooshing with the back of your spoon to break it up, for 1–2 mins. Crush and add the garlic and cook, stirring, for a minute more.
Step 3.
Pour in the passata and a splash of balsamic vinegar glaze. Season with salt and black pepper. Bring to the boil, then scrape in the chopped olives and add the capers. Let the sauce bubble away until the pasta is ready. Try the sauce, adding more balsamic and/or seasoning to taste.
Step 4.
Use tongs to transfer the spaghetti straight from the saucepan to the frying pan. Toss everything together, then divide between four bowls. Tear over the basil and serve with a hunk of Parmesan on the side ready for grating over.
