Step 1

Serves 2, but can easily be scaled up by increasing the amount of pasta, beans and tomatoes used.

Step 2

Put a large pot of water on to boil for the pasta.

Step 3

Heat the oil and the garlic clove in a saucepan over medium heat until the garlic begins to sizzle. Add 2 ladlefuls of cooked beans into the pot, along with a ladle of the bean water.

Step 4

Crush the tomato with a fork and add this into the saucepan, along with the purée. Bring the sauce to a simmer, salt/pepper it to taste and allow it to cook, partially covered, while you boil the pasta.

Step 5

Salt the boiling pasta water generously and add the dry pasta. Cook as directed or until al dente to your taste. Drain it and return it to the pasta pot. After removing and discarding the garlic clove, add the bean sauce into the pasta.

Step 6

Stir all together over medium heat until the sauce completely coats the pasta. If there's excess moisture, turn up the heat and stir until it thickens.

Step 7

Serve immediately, topped with a sprinkle of chili powder. Buon appetito!
