Add the tinned tomatoes and sliced chilli and stir well, season to taste with salt and black pepper. Simmer for 8-10 minutes stirring occasionally.

Whilst the sauce is simmering, cook the spaghetti according to the instructions on pack. Save 1 cup (250ml) pasta water and add to the pasta sauce, stir through. Drain spaghetti, add to the pasta sauce, coat well and serve hot with extra freshly ground black pepper.
