If red sauce pasta is your ultimate comfort food, there’s a fun fact you may not know: Arrabbiata translates to “angry” in Italian. The name has nothing to do with the sauce’s vibrant red colour or the tanginess of tomatoes – it refers to the fiery heat of the chilli flakes that give this beloved pasta its signature kick. If you’ve been craving a restaurant-style Penne Arrabbiata at home, this simple, flavour-packed recipe is just what you need.
