Cavolo nero pasta with chilli and anchovy

When I cook pasta for supper I always make more than is needed for that meal because the leftovers can be used the following days for salads and other dishes. Cavolo nero pasta with chilli and anchovy is a good example of this – I make it regularly for lunch and use it later too. Even from scratch it only takes 10 minutes to cook – it’s very tasty and rather spicy! To make it healthy just use millet, buckwheat or brown rice pasta.
