Answer 2

I am not Italian but you can be any nationality in the kitchen lol. Here is an original Italian recipe called:

Penn all' Arrabiata

Kitchen Equipment:
Standard stovetop range, preferably gas but electric is OK.
Kitchen utensils - use wooden or metal utensils if possible - some plastics may melt.
Large (5 quart/litre) "pentola" [cooking pot]
Large frying pan

Ingredients (4 servings):
1/4 cup (about 60 ml) extra virgin olive oil

3 or 4 "spicchi" [sections] of a fresh "punta d'aglio" [garlic clove] (do not use entire clove)

3 medium peeled, chopped "pomodori" [tomatoes]
2 tablespoons fresh chopped "prezzemolo" [parsley]

"pepe rosso macinato" [crushed red pepper] (1 teaspoon more or less according to taste)

16 oz. package (500 mg) penne pasta
granulated salt

Preparation instructions:
Preheat olive oil on high heat. Cook penne pasta "al dente" - penne should still be somewhat firm after cooking. Dani says, "NO MUSHY"! To hot oil add garlic and chile pepper - cook until golden brown. Reduce heat to medium and add tomatoes and salt. Cook uncovered until sauce thickens, about 20 minutes. Drain penne and pour into a warm serving bowl. Pour the sauce over the pasta and gently work sauce to cover the penne - do not stir as this may break up the pasta. Sprinkle individual servings with parsley.

Little history:

"Angry Pasta!" The name of this Italian pasta standard says it all. The penne pasta, or "pens" in English is, well, pen-shaped. And it has traditionally been prepared spicy enough to make ya angry! But you can prepare it according to your taste. Speaking of taste, it's one of the tastiest dishes you'll ever try! Yummy!
