      1. Step 1: In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and anchovies. Use the back of a wooden spoon to break the anchovies up as they heat, allowing them to melt into the oil.
      2. Step 2: Add the diced garlic and sliced chilli, and sauté for 35–40 seconds until fragrant. Then add the crushed tomatoes, a small pinch of salt, and mix well. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.
      3. Step 3: Add the dried spaghetti directly to the pan, along with about 200ml (¾ cup) of water. Stir frequently to ensure the pasta cooks evenly and absorbs the sauce. Let the spaghetti cook for 9–10 minutes, stirring often, until it is nearly tender.
      4. Step 4: Once the pasta is almost fully cooked, add the olives, capers, and chopped parsley. Toss everything well to combine.
      5. Step 5: Serve immediately and enjoy!
