  2. I have all the ingredients at home including the basil leaves which grows in my garden. Am admiring the spicy version of pasta you made and we will simply love this compared to the basic type many do without the chillies.

    When I get back home, I am going to make this and also, my hubby loves pasta for a lighter dinner meal.

  8. I love this simple pasta! It's great side dish too so the flavor is not overwhelming. Peperoncino is one of most popular pasta in Japan. =)
