Instructions

1. Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente, and reserve some of the pasta water.
2. In 1/4 cup olive oil over medium-low heat, saute the 3 cloves of garlic until golden. Remove the garlic.
3. Add the sausage to the pan, turn heat to medium and break it apart with a wooden spoon. If using chili, add it now and saute 1 more minute.
4. When the sausage is nearly cooked through (about 12 to 15 minutes), add the white wine and turn the heat to high.
5. After 3 minutes, lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the tomato paste. Cook 5 minutes, spreading it across the pan. Add the crushed plum tomatoes and bring to a simmer.
6. If the sauce is too thick, add 1/2 cup water to thin it.
7. Remove half the sauce and set it aside. Add the pasta to the pan with the remaining sauce and cook 1 to 2 minutes more, tossing to coat.
8. Add the spinach and toss until wilted. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve with the reserved sauce on the side if needed.
