Ingredients

Instructions

1. Peel the salami and cut it into thin strips.
2. Heat a large pan on high, add a generous amount of olive oil, then a splash of water and the onion; the water helps stop the onion burning.
3. Cook the onion for about 5 minutes, stirring now and then.
4. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to the boil and add 1 tbsp rock salt to dissolve.
5. Add the pasta and stir now and then; cook for the time on the packet.
6. When the onion is caramelised, add the salami strips and stir constantly, as they cook quickly.
7. Stir in the passata, reduce to medium, season with salt and pepper and simmer for 5-7 minutes.
8. Take the sauce off the heat if the pasta is not yet ready, let it rest briefly, then tear in basil leaves and stir.
9. When the pasta is al dente, reserve a mug of pasta water and drain.
10. Return the sauce to low heat, add the pasta and toss well. If it looks dry, add a little reserved pasta water and toss gently.
