Instructions

3 steps
  1. 1

    Put the pasta and salt in a microwavable bowl, cover with boiling water and microwave for the cooking time stated on the packet, plus an extra 4 minutes. Stir every 2-3 minutes to make sure the pasta doesn’t stick together. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Tip the garlic and oil into a microwavable bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Pour in the chopped tomatoes, tomato purée, Italian seasoning and red chilli flakes. Microwave for 2 minutes, stirring halfway. Set aside to cool for 1 minute to allow the mixture to thicken up.

  3. 3

    Stir the pasta into the sauce and sprinkle over the Parmesan, if using.
