Originating in Campania, the Italian region of Naples in the mid-20th century (where pizza originated), Puttanesca is a pasta dish made with olives, capers, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, tomatoes and fresh parsley. Though there are many theories on how the name came to be, one thing is certain: all it takes is a few minutes to prepare this delicious traditional Italian meal, and only a couple of ingredients are needed to pull out the key flavours of Campania.
