This classic Italian Spaghetti dish is confirmation that the simple things in life are often the best (and even better if you know a few tricks!). In this recipe, I shave the garlic into very thin discs using a mandolin slicer, mashes up the best-quality Italian tinned tomatoes with his hands, and tears the basil, adding it last so it stays fresh and green.
