Preparation

Bring a pot of water to a boil for the pasta.

In sauce pot over medium heat, heat oil, 3 turns of the pan. Add anchovies and melt into oil; add garlic, chilies, onions and stir 5 minutes to soften. Add meat and brown and crumble then add paste, thyme and bay. Deglaze pot with vermouth or wine and reduce until almost evaporated. Add stock and passatta, and stir in parsley. Simmer at low bubble for 20 minutes.
